    Think most farmers will agree with you on this one bucket but the trade like sitting ducks. Another thing that should go is target pricing its only good for grain companies there is no incentive to raise the bids.Here Cargill seem to onsistently scare people if you don't sell now the next delivery opportunity is 3 months from now with their stupid premiums.A premium is only a less of a discount people!

      Farmers might agree but farm representatives can't even understand the concept...or are paid off to ignore it by their masters. ..

      WCWGA have the ear of conservative MPs. Never gains traction....and the newly minted ag critic has it on her CV that she helped create the mess with BRMs and the open market....

        At least American farmers know by the mandatory sales reporting. ...

        In Canada farmers take a shitty price and find out 6 months later China was buying and they should have got more for their product....
        Ohh I get it , problem I have no marketing expert is saying a word . It’s been know since mid July they had a huge problem there
        And yet all we hear is record crop ... record crop ... huge carryovers..
