Moisture testers

These kinds of issues are the reason that the Compas Review of CGC recommended that an Office of Grain Farmers Advocacy Office be set up but was ignored and the Office of Assistant Commissioners was closed.

Its been my pet peeve all winter.I have asked around in my area and anyone using a 919 is testing at least point five dryer than terminals.

Same here our old 919 always tests drier , guess we are correct they are WRONG! Class action again?

My x3 lentil samples were tough I was told. 13.4% no one wanted them in the fall.

Finally there was some demand last week so I hauled them agreeing to take a discount because of the moisture.

Ends up they were from 11.8 to 12.9 moisture. No discount.

But had I hauled them in the fall, I am sure they would have been tough.

Fwiw they didn't care what my moisture test showed.

Looks like farmers getting screwed again. Western producer has article about it. Have been hearing same thing when hauling grain to terminals.

Are they finally waking up how these new testers read high? Sorry I never read article.
