    One thing is for sure!

    We got rid of 3/4 of the family farms and nobody noticed.

      Wmoebis, what does that have to do with the CWB or this post? If your worried about our family farms for what ever reason start a post on it.

        wmoebis,
        I agree.
        Family farms have decreased dramatically.

        But wheat, over the last 60 years, run by a state marketer, has NOT sold well at all, has not kept up with the price of tractors, or rubber boots, or magazine subscriptions.

        Why hasn't it?

          And wmoebis,

          Those small family farms, most of them, have DEPENDED upon selling wheat, have taken great pride in growing wheat; in fact, placed their trust in a sonofab%^$hin' government marketer to look out for them so they couild stay afloat.

          3/4 failed you say.

          And Wheat Board staff have burgeoned like a circus fat lady, bloated and useless.

          Surley you will at least agree wheat prices are not inflated. Pars

              I'm easy to find I don't hide behind a username. LOL

              I didn't say in any stretch that they failed. In fact a lot did very well in all ways. Provided a good living, raising up to 12 kids on 1/2 section and sold out for good money. If that is a measure of prosperity.
              What I was getting at is with only 1/4 of the farmers, even tho they are producing more grain, maybe a loss of 3/4 of the employees at the CWB wouldn't be such a big deal.

                  For what it is worth, here are current Montana grain prices.

                    Those are the in the pit prices as well. No deductions for freight or elevation. And no stopping your deliveries if you have 50 percent of your grain delivered.

                      Fair enough. They are real prices that reflect real business as well
                      which includes the ability to attract deliveries to cover business. No
                      forecast of average prices. No establishing by committee.

                      More North Dakota levels.
