Farm & Market Report
Cattle, sheep and grain prices, crop conditions and the week's weather, gathered in one place for the farms of Chatsworth.
Once a week, the Banner will pull together the numbers farm families watch: what cattle and lambs brought at the sale barn in Keady and other Ontario markets, where grain prices sit, how the crops are coming along, and what the weather has in store for field work. Every figure comes from a published report, and we'll say which one, with the sale date.
Where the numbers will come from:
- Keady Livestock Market sale reports, as published by Beef Farmers of Ontario and Ontario Sheep Farmers
- Daily commodity prices from Grain Farmers of Ontario
- Crop condition reports from the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Agribusiness
- Forecasts and warnings from Environment and Climate Change Canada
The first Farm & Market Report is on the way.
Farmers: what should the report track? A crop, a price, a sale? Tell us at news@chatsworthbanner.ca.
