    I disagree with you on this one Tom, have Atlantic grains been contributing to WGRF? This I do not know.

    I do believe the time may though have come for me to begin requesting all my checkoff dollars back from more than one group as there appears to be no "ownership" of reasearch material nor seed lines produced from these same research.
    Wonder what my returns would be if I recaptured all checkoffs and took that money and invested it in private ag. research companies? Syngenta, Bayer, etc.
    Something I am going to have to take a hard look at as my checkoff dollars are starting to get substantial every year

        Soybeans are not bred using check-off
        dollars. Canadian Malt barley was.

          I hope the western barley commisions address this issue.

              these are exactly the reasons why we need
              to get organized.
