Change at the CWB!

Why don't all you farmers for just me run in an election and change things. Oh I forgot some of you did and didn't get any votes.

Wilagro/Stubble:

As long as you are willing share to share in my farm expenses... you can vote on how our family sells our grain.

If you won't share in our farm expenses... why should you expect to share in our wheat/barley income?

Of course you would vote to take our families money...

BUT:
HOW does that make what you are doing ethical or fair or responsible?

Why should a vote for the pool be allowed take our right to make our families farm living away?

Wilagro I believe that is exactly the type of election that is being conducted now. The problem is with the way the election is conducted now with landlords and non interested farmers making up most of the voting, it's one of the reasons that does not give the cwb or cwb election any credibility or legitimacy. It's also why most of the actual grain producing farmers,in other words the major stakeholders in this industry are NOT voting in cwb elections and this should be a concern to you and stubby.
Hopper makes an interesting and good point,and one that I think that would please you and stubby, to be eligible to run for a cwb director you have to show that you have only produced wheat and barley on your farm. This would then ensure totaly cwb,and cwb election credibility.
