Well, Tucker, by law, farmers had to follow it. Over time, people become complacent. The CWB supporters in the designated area went to bed at night, aware that although they were getting less, the neighbor was not getting more! Fair and equal for everyone....in the designated area.
The only way to adapt/succeed in this situation was to increase yeild. Soon there becomes an oversupply, I think the old term used to be a "glut" of grain. Logically, abundant supply leads to decreased prices.
I recall having a conversation with a farmer 35 miles away. I was all confused. He told me that he could not afford another big crop. It took a while but I figured it out.
