So I was enquiring about selling some canary and some peas getting prices and to my amazement more than one company told me I d have to wait 3 weeks for my cheque and that it was industry standard to do so?
I don’t think so.
There needs to be a change and our government needs to step in. Buyers need to have that money available either from the people they are selling to or perhaps our gov need to step up and provide loans or what ever it is to these companies so they have the cash available when we sell. If a foreign buyer defaults then the company and gov can deal with it. This bullshit that we have to take the risk of not getting our money has to end. We have enough worries and risk in getting our crop grown etc. And on top of that I want my money when I sell the grain.
When I challenged rhe one company to explain the best they could come up with is that the mail system is slow. Well I can electronic transfer money for anything in about 5 minutes.
