So farma others or all what does this mean , obviously I’m stating the obvious but some nuts and bolts for me.
So all of you store 100% on farm yes or no?
As you harvest you have rough idea of grade moisture protein test weight before you store so in theory you know your product yes no?
Most of you do NOT pre sell it seems yes no?
So use you farma wheat hits a price that tickles your fancy and bank balalance do then ring broker company what ever lock in price then they test and you get plus or minus depending on quality yes or no?
Can you deliver ASAP or it’s priced quality checked you deliver at a later date or both?
So it’s not like our cumbersome at times pricey system of harvest grain gone a few hours later into elevator system graded and can be priced or you can warehouse it free storage until March 1. You can disclose your tonnes to buyers if you choose. But buyers always know unsold tonnes in a elevator and grade in total but not individually up to grower to disclose.
If harvest takes say 5 weeks here you can harvest price and sell all in that time frame.
Me I go for domestic market bit trickier but worth it in 70% of years.
There are no let’s call it inland storage terminals across Canada that hold 300,000 plus tonne owned by corporates or farmers for that matter?
Farmers banding together here building there own inland terminals rather than on farm. Meaning 200 farmers put in 40 k each mostly bunker sites which don’t work in your climate and of course you guys can’t unload sites 24/7 12 months of the year.
Sorry for dumb questions even dumb post but no worse than some threads on here at times.....yeah yeah I’m guilty as well
