Since spring the CWB has lost alot of support. Move half of the single desk supporters over to dual marketing and you will be closer.

charliep: Perhaps...I guess time will tell. It all depends on how the new non-farmer directed CWB presents itself. A lot of farmers that I know are really pissed off that the elected BOD will be dismissed once the new legislation goes through. Why in Hell go through the process of regional elections if the directors are going to be fired?

I don't see much benefit in pooling wheat myself. Most likely what I will do is look for a cash contract. Wheat and barley will have to be competitive with the other options and in time the market will set acres like it is supposed to. A lot of people I talk to are afraid of CWRSW this coming year, I for one would like to try some. Possibly even try malt barley again. Local Feed market is good now I don't think it will hold. Marketting wheat will become simplified in my opinion. Make a few phone calls and sell to the highest bidder. Or offer the grain at a certain price. Haul in the contracted month.

Some elevator managers have been asking about a pooling option. I said I might consider it depending on price and delivery. I would prefer to have some going in right off the combine at a reasonable price and full payment. Then if they pay me to store, i would consider a pooling option. Its all about the dollars. Show me the money!!!
