How do you define Commodity Marketing?

Please forgive my spelling in the previous post! My teachers would turn over in their graves.

melvill,

"Astute marketers have a competitive edge. I would argue it's significant." says melvill.

I thought about this this morning when labelling bags and I have to ask this question:

There are reams of expert marketers at the CWB costing farmers a fortune. Experts! By jove, they tell us at every opportunity how expert they are and how hopeless farmers are.

FACT
But these hopeless farmers overall, put more in their pockets from off-Board crops or they wouldn't keep growing them.

If what you say, melvill,is true about the astute marketers, then;

The Board didn't hire astute marketers OR

The Board marketer doesn't get a significant margin OR

The money isn't getting the extra margin to the farmer OR

The farmer can market just as well as the Board expert.

Lee and Charlie;

See if you guys can get Agri-ville to put a spell checker in the system...

CBC Internet forums have one, as I am sure many others do!
