Louis Dreyfus is selling out to P & H

[fjlip]

How many BILLIONS did it take?

So they have two terminals in Tisdale WTF?

[Partners]

Hope it pans out for whoever goes there.
The plant at quill lake is always lower prices than viterra or RP at wadena..

Lost track but wasn't someone trying to take over P&H just a couple years ago? If not betting someone soon will be.

Soon down to one chem/fert supplier, one grain buyer,and JD.

P and H very slow to buy canola hopefully it gets better otherwise will be a major loss.

Knew something was up last year Dreyfus seemed unorganized almost contracted canola and waited 2 months after agreed date to take it. Couldn’t get cheque’s same day. Was odd. Since they used to be a good place to deal.

Dreyfus were quit often the best price so make sense for P and H I guess !

LDC has always had a larger targeted return on investment than other companies.

Brandt Randles is a very detail oriented and disciplined bean counter. I don't mean that in a bad way.
