Congrats to Riley from Unity, SK, he won himself 40 acres of BATALIUM by submitting an answer to our latest weekly contest. Check out this weeks question and give yourself a chance to win. We are giving away another 40 acres of Batalium valued at over $1300. Tune into the episode for details. 
Before we get into today’s episode summary, Let’s take a moment and wish the woman in our lives a very happy mothers day. Happy mother's day Chantal, and same goes to my mom Angel. 
Now the nuts and bolts of today's episode. It’s the most wonderful time of the year……no i’m not singing about Christmas, its spring rally time. Crop marketing is super busy right now. Handling decisions on 3 different crop years has me swamped and we dive into that a little bit. 
Ryan's positive moments for the week include a shout out he saw on "X" this past week, the spring market rally, and the awareness around Agfinity's very slow payments to farmers. 
Bret Walts with BAMWX, helps us get caught up on all things weather related. He also reviews what to expect across the Canadian prairies for the second half of May. 
The Pioneer Seeds mailbag was packed again this week, with questions from Colin, Patricia, Rick and Ryan. Remember to keep the questions coming - ryan@whatthefuturespodcast.ca We are giving away a nice little cooler bag and bluetooth speak each month this summer, thanks to Pioneer Seeds. 
Some of my answers involved information from www.cargillag.ca and www.my.viterra.ca, please reach out to those folks for additional question or comments. 
Thank you to show sponsor John Deere. I know it's fun to talk about new equipment, but I do want to give a SHOUT OUT to the service departments. Those folks are doing a great job across the prairies, have a safe spring run.

This weeks episode was a SOLO one with Ryan behind the microphone. New internet connection and new recording software seems to have fixed the sound issues of the last few weeks. So this episode is all about crop marketing with a bit of an emphasis on wheat. Does the market care about your cost of production? And should your break-even numbers stop you from selling wheat this spring? Check out the episode as Ryan covers this and more.

Ryan's positive moments for the week include attending game #1 of the Edmonton Oilers playoff series against the Kings. He also give kudos and a shout out to volunteer fire departments across the Prairie provinces and farmers with full water trucks. 
The mailbag was empty once again this week, as I expect many of you are busy prepping for the growing season. So Ryan turns the tables by asking "Do you have any concerns about the proposed Bunge/Viterra merger?" Email ryan@whatthefuturespodcast.ca your answer. 
And remember to keep the questions coming. By submitting a question you can potentially win a bag of P516L from Pioneer Seeds Canada. This is our last month giving away seed until sometime later this year. Don't worry Maggie is brainstorming a new prize for spring and summer. Have a question? You know what to do, email me and be our next winner!
