U.S. ethanol expected to be competitive in 2017

By
San Diego | CNS Canada –– Weaker commodity prices and less international competition are expected to lend demand and profitability to the U.S. ethanol market in 2017, one analyst says.

From the October 24, 2016 issue of Canadian Cattlemen

Canadian embargo

Reprinted from the Sept. 1947 issue of Canadian Cattlemen

From cattlemen and their organizations comes an insistent query, “When will Ottawa permit us to ship our cattle to the United States?” That question must be answered unequivocally by the Dominion government.

Feed Grains Overview

By
The feed grains complex has been under pressure throughout the fall season due to larger Canadian barley and U.S. corn production. Now that harvest is wrapped up, the fundamental structure is basically set for the crop year.
