Elevator Talks
Tuesday May 11, 2021
A cool morning at the elevator today, we are looking forward to warmer temperatures towards the end of the week. The planter is ready to head back to the field and trucks are on the road. Construction is in full swing and the yard is a busy place.
Markets up overnight.
Tomorrow's USDA monthly crop report will include the first forecast for 2021/2022 suppy and demand. A strong Canadian dollar is lowering Ontario basis. US planting is progressing smoothly. Ontario has started as well. Weather in North America will become an increasing factor during the next few months. Great harvest prices still up for graps.
Call anytime for marketing advice or if you have questions.
Keep warm!

2021 Harvest Delivery Procedures
As we approach harvest, we want you to know that our harvest delivery procedures have changed slightly this year. We continue to practice social and physical distancing, wearing masks, proper handwashing and sanitizing to eliminate the spread of COVID-19.
The scale house will be closed to farmers and carriers during harvest.
The following is what to expect when you bring a load to the elevator:
Upon arrival, remain in your vehicle to be weighed in. Communicate via cell phone to declare ownership and type of grain delivered.
Remain in your vehicle at all times. If you need to leave your vehicle when you are dumping please wear a mask and practice social and physical distancing.
Once your vehicle is unloaded, return to the scale, and remain on the scale in marked area to be weighed out.
Scale tickets can be picked up outside the scale house or delivered to your vehicle by staff.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us. We are happy to accommodate a "non-contact delivery" if you wish. Please notify the office in advance about the ownership and type of grain you are delivering.
Checking Samples in Advance As always, we are more than happy to test your samples before harvest for moisture and grade. Please contact the office upon arrival and let our staff know you have a sample to be tested. An outside table will be set up with pails for you to transfer your sample into and our staff will test the sample as requested. Remain in your vehicle and a staff member will bring out the results.
Due to the current situation we might not always be in the office but we are available via phone: (905) 939-7494 email: office@dunkerronelevators.ca and text: (905) 252-2442
