Straw

---

Red River Forage has been producing straw for 20+ years. With that comes expertise in knowing the perfect time to harvest product to ensure straw quality. With a lineup of dependable and well maintained equipment and a seasoned harvest crew, it enables us to quickly and efficiently bale, stack, and store under roof the straw harvest.

The farm has steadily grown its customer base to include customers all across Canada and the USA. By owning its own trucks and partnering with carriers looking for backhauls, we can cost effectively reach locations across nearly all of Canada and the US.

Quality control measures take place multiple times through the production and shipping process: When baling the straw, when hauling the bales home and when shipping product out. Any bales not meeting the expectations of the customer are sorted out and set aside when loading.

We have multi-year supply agreements with local cereal farmers to ensure a steady yearly supply of wheat, oats, rye, barley, canola, and cornstalk bales available. This ensures consistent production year to year to serve customers with a steady yearly supply.

We have multiple options to specifically meet customers needs:

• Multiple types of straw (wheat, oats, rye, barley, flax, canola, and corn stover)
• Long, short and medium straw cut lengths
• Carrier network to set up regular consistent year round deliveries, setup a custom delivery schedule or deliver on short notice
