Each seeding season comes with a fair bit of excitement for farmers, but this year also comes with more than a fair share of uncertainty. Craig Klemmer with Farm Credit Canada discusses some of the risks facing producers and what factors could make 2022 the most expensive crop on record; Bruce Burnett of MarketsFarm offers his outlook on prairie moisture conditions, spring seeding forecasts, and the efforts of Ukrainian farmers to get a crop in the ground as war rages around them; plus, Manitoba Co-operator editor Gord Gilmour shares his thoughts on the importance of rail service to grain farmers, and Western Canada’s economy as a whole.
