    Time for the CGC grade determinate to include Falling Number?

    Since quality is hard or difficult to sell, or maybe it isn’t?

    Is it time to add the falling number into the grading system so it’s suppliers and customers both know what they are selling or buying?

    Breeding wheat with a variety name means little to nothing. The exporters and importers buy on specifications. So we doesn’t The Canadian system accept this and embrace this as a quality assurance factor to be included with the variety name?

    They are already making a killing off our hard work. Any potential gains in quality will just go to the "Industry" and not the farm gate.

      It would identify quality so farmers could be paid for it, every other country grades and pays on falling number.

      These should also be automatic, and auto printed onto our grain receipt as it is with scale weights. This would eliminate mistakes and reduce the work load for the receiving grain graders. It should be very useful for the grain marketing or sellers to make spec for grain sales.

      And while we are modernizing the system, grain dockage, protein and other quality or grain grade determined factors can also be auto printed.

      Friday happy hour here😀

          How about just getting all elevators up to spec....leaving viterra in moose jaw without a piece of paper is stupid....but the CGC lets it continue.....

            Why NO PAPER? Viterra and Pioneer Wadena have always issued delivery paper with every load.

              I used to get FNs on my own every year.
              Sometimes useful actually.
              I feel we need something like a CGC as a watchdog. But the current org should be burnt to the ground. Just my opinion.

                  You think but CGC does SFA about it. ....it's weighed up top and it can be hours before you or trucker can get weight....

                    They don't like you to look back on a ticket and see which one of them gave you a need for cooling your hemarhoid zone after.

                      Grain buying and selling are done on different "specs".

                      How much Red Winter wheat do you think can be blended into good HRS and not affect the milling qualities?

                      And we're banging our heads against the wall aiming for higher quality in a low quality price driven market. I can't convince myself high quality wheat prices raise the price of our low quality competitors....I believe it is a fact the opposite, mountains of low quality low COP wheat puts a lid on limited quantities of high quality high COP wheat.

                      But the SeedTaxScam will somehow differentiate us and set us apart and correct that issue.

                      The CGC supplies the arsenal of degrading tools for the GrainCos to use. That's why "there's always something".....

                        Remember when wheat board used to tell us about success selling blend of hard red spring and winter wheat into some markets.
                        Dissatisfied winter wheat growers thought we were underpaid in comparison with hard red growers.

                          Yup now we are all down to the price of winter wheat....and the value of cwrs is based on ukranian prices...look at durum ....4cwad is worth more than a 1cwad at viterra. ...

                            Well what are the solutions, how can the system be made better?

                            Nationalize the port facilities, grain companies deliver to the port companies and sell the grain based on the grade supplied to them?

                            Governments can buy pipelines.
