Does the CGC do a Good Job for FARMERS?

[$short]

So many questions to answer but I doubt this technology will be used until they can do a driveway test with it. How far away is that?

Parsley,

ONLY in Canada would we WANT this complex crazy system.

Falling number is the primary factor everywhere in the global market for milling quality.

Unit trains of 'feed wheat' are being loaded... based on falling number... right now.

A loaf of bread could care less... especially with the gluten fractions avaliable to upgrade a grist to make quality baked foods.

The CWB is simply trying to hoodwink the world into believing our wheat is somehow different... when quality flour is made from quality wheat with good falling numbers... anywhere it is grown on this little planet.

WE are crazy... in the 'designated area'. Eastern Canada is NOT trying to reinvent wheat and genetically identify every lot of wheat grown.

THis is a CWB plot to justify the 'single desk' remain in the 'designated area'.

Fine. As long as I can sell my wheat to whomever wants to buy it... outside the 'single desk' like Creston or eastern Canadian wheat growers can.

We should have our heads examined for even considering this CGC/CWB plot!

Soon only western 'designated area' wheat growers with the CWB 'single desk' gene identified in their brains... will be allowed to grow wheat!

The CGC is tool that enables the grain companies to run ruff shot over the Canadian farmer. They "enforce" grain quality standards that don't make a lick of difference to the end use functionality of the commodity. What a joke.
