    re co-ops single desk etc

    http://www.farmonline.com.au/news/agriculture/cropping/general-news/graincorp-happy-with-cbh-strategic-fit/2751654.aspx#readercomments

    This is latest hot topic.
    WACBH is a elevator in west Australia with say 85% of capacity.
    Also a grain marketer in the own right.

    Grain corp was similar in NSW east coast same story grain handling facilities marketer but maybe 50% domestic 50% export wereas wacbh is almost 100% export huge difference in business model.
    .
    WACBH tried and failed to buy a share of graincorp I think 30% plus of grain corp is now owned by ADM whos full takeover got blocked by our govt not in national interest persay.

    Anyway read link and comments kinda relevant to cbh situation a little

    Key point here is growers will have a massive windfall initially.

    Growers also have the votes a true farmer owned co-op if im a betting it wont get up.
