Don't where to put so will ask here and hopefully malleefarmer will comment. The proposed suitors for Viterra will also have a major impact on Australia. Any feedback on perception there and regulatory framework for approving a merger of this type?

There will be regulatory process here in Canada but with 35 to 40 percent market share, but many including John believe this will not be a major impediment to approval. Deal ain't done but will be interesting to see how plays out.

Hey Pape', Hows The Paperless Wheat Contracts at ICE in Whinerpeg Going????? Open Market Ain't What its All Crakced up To Be eh........ ahahahahahahahahaha

Ya bto, why would we ever want to know what the actual price really is? It was soooooo much better when the CWB was telling us we were getting 'premiums'.

Where do yous see that I support The Bored wd???? Just letting Pape' know Chaos abound Each and Everywhere yous look in The Grain Markets, Exactly what The Multis Ordered, Noone Knows What The **** is What. Yous Ain't Seen nothin Yet, Let The Chiselin & Cheatin Begin!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just curious where the confusion and choas are. The US wheat futures markets are functioning very well and providing the necessary price just as they always have. They have formed the basis for CWB risk management and producer payment options. What will be nice will be a made in Canada wheat, durum and barley price based in Canadian dollars and a delivery location farmers can relate to.

The contracts grain companies are offering farmer are relatively straight forward. The CWB contracts are taking some time but will be out on the street this spring.

But we are both off the original topic. The world is an interesting place.
