Cereal crop production in the Atlantic Provinces is quite different today compared to previous decades. Everevolving farming practices mean significant changes in farm management strategies for cereal crops. Using the concept of the Maximum Economic Yield (MEY) management approach, each fixed and variable production cost component is weighed carefully before proceeding. Maximum economic yields result from paying more attention to components such as soil fertility (i.e. particularly the nutrient contributions from organic sources), seed depth placement and combine losses, to mention a few. Further fine-tuning of pesticide selection and timing, reduced tillage systems for optimal seedbeds, crop rotations, nitrogen catch crops, and utilization of revenue "safety nets" are important factors in this region's cereal production. To lessen machinery carrying costs, neighbouring producers are in a good position to form machinery co-ops to purchase certain types of equipment such as land levellers, roller harrows and specialized combine headers or rely on custom operators for procedures such as manure spreading and injection and/or pesticide storage and application. Cereal crop production in the region is very important to provide feed sources and provide the needed crop rotations with other crops (i.e. forages, potatoes, vegetables). At times, net returns alone (affected by market price and/or climatic Influences) may not justify cereal crop production. However, the benefits from cereals in a sound crop rotation and the need to help reduce the importation of livestock feed should justify progressive cereal crop production in this region.
