    When you do contracts here protein is either fixed or floating at sign up.

    Known spreads

        When I grow 15.9 protein they take it and say nice number two.

        Now we sell awsome number one that’s 12.7 and they screw you to a tune of 2 dollars a bushel.

        Contract 7 paid just over five.

        Here is some Vaseline for your a$$ as we slip it in.

        They are screwing us so bad it’s pathetic.

        Wheat is going to be like malt barley soon as the Grain companies play with grade and made up shit.

        Again we grow it they take it great system in canada.
        Two bucks?? That's excessive. 60-80 cents a point is what I've been told.

          Just wondering!
          Is anyone taking around a sample with known protien and checking everyone's protien machines? Maybe other half from what you sent in to CGC for harvest sample.

              Also because there is no printer on prot machines results are hand written on piece of paper and manually entered into computer. Does anyone visually check and record to confirm it is recorded and enter correctly?

              There is no paper trail for you and mistakes happen. No other industry would allow it this way in this day and age of electronics.

              Favorite answer when asked for recheck is "Oh someone must have entered it wrong"

                At this point 60 is "good". Viterra is 80 down to a 12.5 now.
