    Mandatory sales reporting would help the Canadian industry.

      You guys talk of getting screwed on grades you don’t have upgrading at receivable centres then? Trick is to check each elevators stacked average of deliveries. Freely available to all that info. So if you’ve got wheat with borderline protein for top grade you send your wheat to a elevator that is running very very high protein at that site, yep your wheat is 1% under but we will upgrade because our average is 3% above. Better explanation below. I read a lot of your harvest shenanigans and issues well we sell and deal with exact same multi national companies Cargill LDreyfus ADM Bunges etc. last harvest think there were almost 70 companies operating.

      Really dunno why it hasn’t worked over there.

      The 2018/19 season was the first year companies introduced dynamic binning for wheat, allowing growers to receive grade upgrades with classification ranges applicable based on a rolling stack average system. The positive feedback received by the bulk handling company has prompted them to widen the scope of dynamic binning to include Malt barley varieties for the 2019/20 season.

      Dynamic binning will now be available for ASW1, APW1, H2 and H1 wheat grades, as well as Malt1 grades including Planet, Scope, Spartacus and Compass as well as Feed1 (F1).

      How does dynamic binning work?

      Dynamic binning allows grain that is just outside of the required receival standard the chance to be upgraded, this provides growers with greater flexibility and the potential to access a higher grade. To receive the upgrade four criteria components, need to be met:

      Classification results fall within the specified tolerances (see table below)
      Load meets all other quality requirements, including variety contaminants and MRLs
      The higher grade segregation is available at the delivery site
      The rolling stack average of the higher grade segregation meets the Grain Trade Australia (GTA) receival standards

        Again what do your farmer organisations do there,we have the above, we have shipping schedules in advance months what grades tonnes and which ports there loading from.

        All grain in elevators known grade tonnes sold and unsold, buyers tenders always available.

        Glen at Sask wheat development commission would be pushing for all the above he’s ahead of the pack he keeps telling us.

        Guess marketing when single desk was removed was welcomed and growers marketers end users all moved ahead together almost.

        Recent survey here about singlecdesk Australian wheat board something crazy 98% in favour of open market. At time of change was about 85%.

        And we also had fully deregulated domestic market for I think 6 years so wasn’t a huge change when export market freed up.

        Malt premiums two things beer consumption lowering all the time and two latest state of the art brewery’s can extract decent malt from almost any barley as long as protein is correct nothing more nothing less. So huge premiums for malt almost a fallacy now.

        There is one malt barley here in Australia outdated 15 yrs ago like me but breweries pay overs for it like $60 plus per tonne but not many grow it but that ones the exception.

        Anyway enough waffle from me have a good night

          There are 355 primary elevators on the prairies and farmers don't have a clue exactly how much is in any of them.
          There is a weekly report of stocks by province, but not by grade.
          Export terminals do report stocks by grade and volume at each port, but not by individual terminal.
          The Canadian system is nothing like the Australian one when it comes to transparency. Canadian farmers are flying in a fog with a dollar store compass for navigation.

            Thanks 101

              And the people involved for this .....well ....one is in the hall of fame.....one is now the conservative ag critic...

              Just such phucking bullshit that everyone that wanted the American system could not do the no brainer stuff like implement transparency and accountability to the industry with sales reporting....vessel reports....and a more public accounting of what is going on...

              The system would operate far more efficiently.....

              My two closest elevators ...one is closed during a bumper crop ....has been for years 10000 tonne concrete


              The other is 40000 tonnes and has been plugged for three weeks with no train coming and it's on a mainline. ....manager can't make any commitments to his contract holders. ..nice

                I do not know the history of the Aussie system and how it worked back in AWB days. I'm guessing the transition to your present system was a lot different then here post CWB.

                Back in CWB days there was an accounting 6 months after the end of the crop year, but during the crop year there was always the impression that very few knew what was going on. Sometimes the yearend report would show that truly no one knew what was going on.

                Now a select few know what is going on and they ain't sharing.
                Now we work with graincos through customer reps who at times will hint about some marketing programs on the horizon but do not in any way help farmers to make informed and concrete plans.

                Delivery contracts have very little in them that helps the producer. One beef in particular is that there are no price scales for grade changes. No guarantees of a price for any over delivery on the contract. It would be much more rewarding to ask for your over delivery tonnes back and feed it to the wildlife.

                  All they have done is downloaded the cost of storage to farmers.....where an elevator could turn their storage 10 times a year. ...farmers are building to turn once every two years....mind numbing.....and farmers are OK with it....
