That wasn't a question about the board reports.

It was a question about industry as a whole reporting like the do in the states.

As you sat around the board table surely you looked at the impact and suggested to ritz that a system be implemented to offset the cwb issues.

I am talking about forward sales reporting like in the states when referring to transparent reports. That all graincos there have to report their sales by week's end.

The PDQ service compiles pricing information on its website, www.pdqinfo.ca, into regional price averages across nine zones covering Western Canada. Additionally, the site provides futures market closing prices, average wheat grade and protein spreads, local weather and foreign exchange rates.



Future versions of PDQ will include customizable functionality and charting capabilities and AWC will endeavour to add other commodities. Additionally, current basis information will be linked to futures market prices. The site will not report final transaction prices, and will not replace the interaction between farmers and their local elevators or farm market advisors, but will provide easily accessible and reliable market trends and indicators.



“PDQ will not engage in market advisory or analytical services, but it is designed to become the industry standard for cash grain price information across Canada for use by farmers,” said Steve. “A good segment of the industry is represented.”

Pdqinfo not very helpful. No specific information, just regional averages. What are the daily hits on the site, anyone find it useful?

Pdq is the equivalent of the liberals brown bag scheme.

If you want to sign a contract you have to talk to your grainco. They usually send texts or have a pricing mechanism in house and up to the minute pricing.
