It is crushed as is, bit of scalping is all, just enough to remove John Deere combine parts from the sample.

tweety.... Belly laugh

[sumdumguy]

instead of just telling these pricks to quit adding dockage . our ave. dockage is about 1.2 % and we still pay for cleaning , WTF.???

I agree, these big gran companies should realize that they are playing with fire..... and our livelihood.

[sumdumguy]

It amazes me how the farm press has not once commented about the graincos adding dockage into canola, even the western producer who we know follows this site? Are they all afraid of losiig advertising revenue for outing the culprits?

By they way my canola dockage was assessed at less than 1% last week. Clean sample this year, like every other year.

Like one U of S researcher told me at after a few drinks, "Don't bite the hand that feeds you." Maybe he said, "teat" but whatever. We were having a tete a tete over the monopsony/monopoly issue.

Once again, the assumption dockage is added. Where is your proof?

Well if it is "cleaned" like we PAY for, where the hell is 2.5% magically appearing from?

[checking]

Maybe a math question, but where is the dockage coming from to add to export canola if farmers are not producing it? (A BC sawmill!) I suspect 2% plus is standard for all grains and oilseed exported, but if farmers are saying they are delivering 1%, or so for canola, then it follows that the same group would make the same claim on all grains and oilseeds delivered.

Dockage is always added when shiping out grain. Heated and mixed grains are added in to get them out of the elevator system. How do you think they get rid of those bins of garbage grain?

Elevator downgrades wheat to a 3 for fuzz then cleans it to a #2. Buys canola at 1.5 dock when it is actually .8 then adds fuz kernels to the canola and gets 450 a tonne for the fuzz wheat and 450 a tonne for the chaff and small canola they docked you for. #followthemoney

Too many assumptions and conspiracy theories and not enough tin foil. Although, I think the assumptions and theories are correct, right tweety?

OR, Or, or, has the "cloak of secrecy" finally been stripped from the corruption, revealing the cold-hard-ugly-facts?

Shh!

[Richard5]

We all know terminal cleaning deductions is for the union paid janitor wages of the facility

[checking]

Strange that farmers don't mind paying for $26000.00/tonne certified seed that can meet specs at 85% germination. Those farmers/companies can add 15% dead seed.
Yet, foul complaints fly on 2% export screenings when you deliver 1%. What?

Just because you think it, that makes it true?

[farmaholic]

I "think" so.

That's pretty funny answer! But no it doesn't.
