Manitoba Farm Outlook Bright Analysts Forecast Stable Wheat Prospects
Manitoba farmers at the Farm Outlook Conference heard A L D Martin argue against expanding wheat under irrigation in 1965 to avoid expanding carryover. He noted 1,057 million bushels of wheat on hand, with prices for durum below bread wheat and oats shortages possible if acreage increases. Durum exports fall as US sells to Europe while rapeseed demand rises, and sunflowers could double to around one hundred thousand acres. Cattle and pig sectors are seen improving slowly with higher prices in 1965-66. egg production should rise with some price dips in early 1965.
