REGIONAL REVIEW: NORTH AMERICA

true by the time that they have to make those decisions,” he said. “It is produced along with the Southern Hemisphere crops later in the production cycle definitely. There can be some area response to emerging supply issues.” Canadian wheat growers do not necessarily want to play a role in satisfying demand for generic wheat for trade. “We’re aiming more for quality,” he said. “Certainly when there are supply concerns globally, that would encourage acreage, but it doesn’t necessarily follow just because overall prices have risen that our farmers would plant terribly much more than they do on average.” There can be some switching of area, but wheat plays a role for most Canadian farmers. “Rarely would you find farmers that don’t grow wheat — in Western Canada especially,” Burnett said. “It’s like any other competition for acreage, like right now oilseed values are and over the past decade have been very attractive, and that’s resulted in an increased area of oilseed crops.” That means primarily canola, but not exclusively. “We also do produce some soybeans, especially in southern Ontario,” he said. “That’s essentially an extension of the U.S. corn belt. The production is not huge because the area isn’t really all that large either.” CHANGES IN CANADA The government of Canada plans to dismantle Prairie farmers’ single desk for wheat and barley under the CWB on Aug. 1, 2012. “The government is changing policy quite dramatically here in terms of wheat,” Burnett explained. “The Canadian Wheat Board Act is going to be amended or modified so there will be some rather large changes on that front in terms of how grains are marketed in Western Canada.” What the future will mean in practice remains vague. “How that’s going to be all depends on a number of factors, so it’s probably a little early to speculate as to what ex-

actly is going to happen, but it is going to be a significant change in Canada certainly,” he said. The process is similar to that undergone in Australia in recent years, but Burnett did not see it having the same effect. “It won’t be exactly the same as Australia because our market structure is somewhat different and our geography

is different, but that there will be more Canadian traders or international traders participating in the Canadian market is more probable,” he said.
