United Grain Growers warns that lifting the British embargo will not flood markets. Only fully finished cattle for immediate slaughter and well finished feeders will be marketable, with immature or light stock remaining unprofitable due to high shipping costs and market limits.
The author argues for extended winter feeding to finish cattle before marketing, as a high tariff keeps U.S. beef prices weak. With unfinished cattle pressing to markets in October and November, farmers should hold stock if possible, finish cattle for better prices, and monitor harvest markets for any sales. Achieving open British access could improve prices later.
The article discusses fall stubble management for Prairie grain farmers facing drought. It compares fall ploughing with surface cultivation, noting ploughing buries weed seeds and prepares next year’s seed bed, while cultivating is cheaper but risks weed germination unless frosts destroy surface seeds.
Experiments at the Scott experimental station show falling to plow and disc or burn stubble before plowing increases yields. Fall burning raises wheat and barley by about three bushels and oats by ten bushels vs ordinary fall ploughing. The firm seed bed reduces rapid drying and improves next year’s crop.
