There is no way of policing under the system we have today.
If a producer signs an affidavit that he is delivering CWRS and later on (say) Lillian is traced back to his sample which is going to stand up in court? Farmers signed affidavit or a sample of grain that has been stored in an elevator back room mixed with hundreds of other samples and accessible to all elevator personnel and not under lock and key. If there is other classes mixed the elevator should have down graded to feed at time of delivery. Case closed!
I was in an elevator one day when a producer came in to complain that his CWRS was down graded for other cereal grains (barley), he said he had never grown barley or had it on his farm. I even remember sample #543, elevator went into back room pulled a little sample marked #543 when it was opened it was 100% barley. Elevator said samples must have gotten mixed up.
The truck before him likely had delivered barley.
So, was some left in sampler was it mixed in the pail or equipment or how did the barley get mixed in his wheat?
The elevator is suppose to keep a 1000g sample, all his samples were only 500g so he couldn't even send it to CGC for reinspec or have an inquiry done. Elevator changed grade. Barley and wheat are easy to distinguish not diff varieties of HRS.
The elevator can't visually tell the diff of varieties, there is no inward inspection at terminal so there is no chance of catching problems before it is being loaded onto boat. A little late then I think.

This is UPOV91 at work which everyone except Tom can plainly see. The good old workhorse varieties are banned and you have to line the input suppliers pockets as others have stated. Crony capitalism at it finest. Well at least I can save the 5 minutes in the polling booth this fall.

Elevators aren't built to handle this many classes of wheat along with all the other new crops we are growing, In a timely matter that suits our selling needs.
They will be stretching delivery times to 180 days after contracted date just to get enough to make a ship load.
But I guess we can negotiate contract or don't sell to them.
