More for Less

Local Richardson Pioneer said, "dont bring your grain here if you dont buy some of your inputs from here". Well, after hearing that, off i went to the local indepdent to buy my inputs, and sent my grain south if the line.

Agchat I hear'ya. We farm north of Tisdale. Tisdale, as being our major deliverer point consists of six major grain companies. Bunge crushing in Nipawin, P&H, Louis,Viterra,JRI and Cargill.
For some reason Cargill and JRI continually compete for the bottom price. For some unexplained reason (to me anyways) the lowest price can still generate a large volume of grain. The other 3 line companies just cherry pik with pricing targets and do large volumes and smile all day. And Bunge, well they just continue to smile and make millions a month!!!!

Selling inputs to farmers and trying to buy low priced grain in return was not working. Only jri here is still attempting it. I would think their business. The most productive ugg in western canada is not any more.

MB...you're not the first one to say that's happened or have had it happen to. Won't share location/names...I simply choose to categorize location as dirty during dirty times, and won't deal with dirty. Dunno if individual or cultural though, but I find myself asking that question.
You're right...theres other options.
