USDA FAS Projects Canada All What Output at 33.7 Million Tonnes

The USDA’s Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS) is projecting an increase in Canadian all wheat production this year, although still less than expected by Agriculture Canada. A FAS report Wednesday pegged national all wheat output for 2024 at 33.7 million tonnes. That is up 5.4% on the year but roughly 900,000 below Ag Canada’s new-crop production estimate of just under 34.6 million. The FAS forecast is based on Statistics Canada’s April acreage report – which pegged intended all wheat area at just over 27 million acres – a rebound in yields to the five-year average, and FAS’s own estimate of winter wheat area remaining in the spring. Durum production is seen by FAS at 5.5 million tonnes, a year-over-year increase of 36% but also below the Ag Canada projection of 5.65 million, while spring wheat output is projected at 25.25 million, a 2% increase on the year. Winter wheat production is forecast by FAS at 2.9 million tonnes, which would be down modestly from 3.14 million in 2023.

Funding Available to Manitoba Producers for Livestock Predation Prevention

Manitoba and the federal government have announced $500,000 in funding to help producers in the province protect their livestock from predator attacks. A news release Thursday said the money will go toward assisting producers with the purchase of equipment, livestock guardian dogs, and constructing predator-resistant fencing under the province’s Livestock Predation Prevention Program. Wildlife predation of livestock is a significant problem for Manitoba producers, with over 2,000 livestock lost each year. The Livestock Predation Prevention Program provides two funding streams for producers: Pre-approved Livestock Predation Prevention Equipment and Guardian Dogs will allow eligible applicants to purchase solar foxlights, electronet, fladry and livestock guardian dogs. Predator-Resistant Fence Construction will allow eligible applicants to apply for funding to support construction of eligible fencing that deters predators from entering calving and lambing areas, pastures, exte

Pea Breeder Honoured with Pulse Industry Innovator Award

The Alberta Pulse Growers (APG) selected Dr. Dengjin (DJ) Bing, who continues to produce strong field pea varieties with traits desired by farmers, as the winner of the tenth annual Alberta Pulse Industry Innovator Award. “Each year, APG recognizes a person or organization whose progressive thinking and tireless efforts helped build Alberta’s pulse industry into the flourishing sector that it is today,” said APG Chair Shane Strydhorst. “Farmers recognize Dr. Bing’s research contributions that have demonstrated success and advanced the growth of pulses in their businesses. The strength, consistency and performance of the field pea varieties released from Dr. Bing’s program have regularly provided, and continue to provide, excellent returns to the farm gate.” Alberta pulse farmers and distinguished guests were on hand to celebrate Bing and his achievements at an award luncheon during recent APG Joint Director-Advisor meetings in Lethbridge. Strydhorst noted that the strength, consiste
