Canadian agriculture will no doubt evolve and change. Producers will seek crops that are more profitable for them in future. They don't have a choice: they have to evolve. In five, 10 or 15 years, there will be specific grains for pharmaceutical or other purposes. We'll have to transport specific grains in lesser quantities. We currently transport a significant volume of grains, no doubt wheat. There will be products that will have to retain certain properties. It must be ensured that they are not mixed with other grains, in order to preserve their characteristics.
Will the railway system be able to adjust quickly enough to permit high-quality transportation at an affordable cost? These grains must currently be transported by truck in order to protect those preserved characteristics. I'm convinced that grain volumes will increase, but that producers will still be concerned about transportation. To remain globally competitive, we'll have to transport those value-added products in a secure manner.
