      #1 flooding and presistant rains
      #2 strong canola markets saving alot of producers buts.
      #3 horrible returns of cwb grains that just finished with a dissapointing finnal payment.
      #4 massive pile of severely downgraded lentils to get rid of.

      And of course the cwb eskimo thing - after 60 some years the cwb explained.

        #1 China's almost unquenchable appetite for oilseeds.

        #2 Full impact of US biofuel policy on the corn supply demand. Need a 13 bln bu crop year in, year out.

        #3 No matter how much things change in world around us including risk factors (opportunities and pain), Canadian agriculture policy always stays the same.

          SF3,

          'THe Intangible benefits of the CWB'.

          Spent 2 hours yesterday trying to fix them before being required to go to jail (WELL SMALL EXAGERATION).

          Did GDC, delivered from wheat condo... CWB blew a gasket. Then (they said) the (only fix was to have)cheque had to have a 'stop payment' issued to reverse the transaction.

          Want to make a farmer mad...?

          Spent an hour apologizing for yelling too loudly on the phone for saying NO.!

          DO NOT... I SAY NOT... I SAID AGAIN N.O.T. PUT A STOP PAYMENT ORDER AGAINST MY BANK ACCOUNT ON A VALID ISSUED AND CASHED CHEQUE.

          These GDC's are insane. What was so bad about a,b,c series contracts?

          nEVER KNOW WHEN THEY COME OUT OR IF THEY ARE FULL ALREADY...

          Takes hours on the phone to figure out if the GDC is full... over rides at CWB in place... must phone in to have CWB put more tonnes in computer... then told to 'quickly' do the contract before someone else got it (THE RELEASED cwb TONNES) instead...

          Hours upon hours spent to keep 101 rulers happy... all to get(a silly Eskimo) paid for 1 load of wheat. Ooopps... or not... well maybe...

          nOW i WILL BE ON THE AUDIT LIST... NO doubt...

                SF3,

                Do you think the CWB will (figure out a way) start taking back Direct Deposits out of our banks?

                  Its called not paying for 18 months on pooling and stealing 50 cents to a dollar on every bushel in the ppo.

                  Do you also remember "discretionary trading". We are still paying for that.

                  Who's bank account did that come out of.
