Protien in Wheat

[furrowtickler]

101, yup , like guessing how many gum balls in a jar .
It's unbelievable that this still happens
But it does and the only thing you can do is send samples to Stoon

Let the games begin.

Lets see they suck basically a jar out of a super B. Tell you the protein is 13.5

Thats like one fan in the new Mosaic stadium is a idiot find them.

Oh wait i see them its Grass.

Ok its a example and that how us stupid farmers get paid.

Fun and games. All day long.

One pail of wheat the neighbor had ranged from 13.6-15.3
Here we go again

What the ****.....then some one could be accused of theft?

What are the solutions?

What are the solutions?

.....third party grading. KNOW WHAT YOU HAVE!!! Relying on the party whose buying your product to tell you what it is never sat well with me. Not saying you can't get a good deal from them, its just kinda a weird thing to do. It would be like going to a restaurant and telling them what you are going to pay for the meal based on how good you thought it was!

Will protein discounts and premiums increments equal each other?

I am not picking sides at all but what if this was the scenerio. You take the wheat to the 3rd party amd they say 13.8px for example. Then you all to the elevator and they get 14.5px. Are you going to say, woah its only 13.8 so your machine is out. I should only be paid on 13.8 as per 3rd party sample. Could happen and I bet you would not say a thing. Just one side to the argument.

well that's not what I was getting at at all . guy who checked my wheat is a straight shooter . it is low px , surprising on a dry year

4G.... as I said, not saying you can't get a good deal from them compared to the third party grade. Although I would think the px machines should all be within an acceptable range.

This year should be easier to both buy and sell grain! I doubt the graders, merchants and grain reps like dealing with poorer quality grain any more than the producers who grew it!
