I can't grow lentils, or 6 different crops for that matter, so a question.
Must.man are you saying that there is no system of price discovery or arbitrage for lentils?
Or are you saying that industrial innovation driven by profit is bad?

Mustard, your logic is astounding when you believe that the rest of us are forcing you into the freedom to choose who you sell your grain to. Once again, I do not covet your grain for profitability on my farm so I only want the same respect. We do not sell our grain into the bottom third of the market and have invested heavily in to farm storage so we don't have to. We sell when it makes sense for our farm. You have the same choice. You could easily match the CWBs pricing pace with your own sales and achieve that less than average price you seem to desire. If lentils are the only crop that nets you better returns than durum, perhaps you should hire the services of a marketing consultant that would improve that side of your revenues. Board grains have been consistently the poorest net returns on our farm which is why we desire the freedom to choose who we sell to on all crops.
