Saskatchewan farmer weighs world grain glut and low prices
John Wiebe, a 40 year old Saskatchewan grain farmer, explains how a large harvest may still bring losses due to a world surplus and low prices. He expects about 3.20 dollars per bushel for wheat, projecting a 1986 loss of over thirteen thousand dollars despite high input costs. He cites drought, hail, and policy debates in Ottawa and Washington as key factors and notes his FARM group aims to lobby for better farm economics.
