The link to the discussion on US malt barley contracts is at:

Have asked the CWB the same question directly but no response. Is the CWB offering the equivalent of a daily price contract to offset forcing farmers to do a buy back/producer direct sale?

Don't understand CWB logic. They are blaming low malt values on a high dollar and high ocean freight rates. This at the same time the grain trade was doing feed barley export sales at $4.00. How come the dollar and ocean freight didn't effect feed barley. Still believe malt pros were mostly impacted by early malt barley sales. So much for the great marketing proess the board has.
