    Got rained out Saturday the 26 at 7pm. Haven't had a good solid run due to rains , fogs , dews . This crop really had potential to be a money maker . Not much but now it's a 4CWAD. Haven't tried the wheat as it was still grass green before the rains came earlier. My luck it will be a 3 as well.

    Anyone getting the falling number requirement for a 2CWRS in their area?

          If the contract states there is a falling number requirement then that's what they'll be testing for if ever there is a sprout of any sort in the sample. And if it's in the contract falling number test can be done whenever they want.
          Here is the wording from our contract:
          Falling Number and Vomitoxin

          Seller acknowledges that Buyer will perform certain testing of the Product to determine the “Falling Number” and ”Vomitoxin” concentration of the Product delivered by the Seller to the Buyer under this Contract.

          If the Product has a Falling Number less than 300 (seconds) or the Vomitoxin concentration is more than 2.0 PPM (parts per million), then the Buyer in its sole discretion has the option to:
          (i) reduce the Purchase Price for the Product by the Buyer’s discount factor in effect on the day of delivery for Product having a similar Falling Number or Vomitoxin concentration, as the case may be; and/or
          (ii) delay the Delivery Period to a later period of the same duration.

          Official Grain Commission grading guide does not list falling number levels for grading wheat.
          But sprouted is a factor. For a 2 it's
          2 per thousand kernels for severely sprouted
          1 per hundred total sprouted

          One guy had his load pulled aside at the probe. Falling number test done. Wheat didn't go through the grate.

              Some farmers wanted and still want CGC right out of inspection turning it all over to private 3rd partys and grain companies to self govern.

              sounds like they are getting what is wished for. Who is next into Hall of Fame for this next step?
