    Looking for input

    I have a problem, I have 7000 bushels of fairly decent oats to market. The only trouble is that they have 5 to 6 per cent wheat in them. Has anybody got any ideas about how to market them? I am rapidly running out of options.

    Oats are always a challenge given you have to get very specific on parameters when talking price. Where are you located? What quality (variety, bushel weight, color, etc.)?

      I am located 60 miles north of Regina. The oats weigh 40.5 lbs/bushel uncleaned. Cleaned they weigh 228 grams per half litre(I think that is the volume not up on metric) They have had some rain on them so aren't snow white stained some.

            Thank you all for your input, was getting frustrated and you managed to give me some stimulus to keep looking and was finally able to market my oats. Thanks again.
