    Canadian dollar is currently at .74 US. Quebec Federation support on Golden is $2.95 Canadian = $2.18 US. I understand Bascom has enough syrup on hand to cover his markets until August. At this point, the major producing areas in the US have a great start on a bumper crop. I haven't heard anything about Quebec yet but it is very early for them. All in all it does not look like prices will strengthen.....

    I wonder what Trumps 20 percent "border tax" on Canadian syrup will do to the price?

    If that happens it should help our bulk price climb 20% +/- a little.
    Dave Klish, I recently ordered a 2x6 wood fired evaporator from A&A Sheet Metal which I will be converting to oil fired
    Now have solar, 2x6 finish pan, 5 bank 7x7 filter press, large water jacketed bottler, and tankless water heater.
    Recently bought another Gingerich RO, this one was a 125, but a second membrane was added thus is a 250, like I had.
    After running a 2x3, a 2x6, 3x8 tapping from 79 taps up to 1320 all woodfired, now I'm going to a 2x6 oil fired and a 200-425 taps.

    Sounds like there is a glut of syrup on the market....

    I was just told by my buyer yesterday the price has been set at $2.00 for non organic and $2.23 for organic. The Packers are saying that next years prices will be $2.00 for organic and $1.77 for non organic.
