    It is really a big joke as talking to a lab assistant this weekend. They say you get the grain do the grinding etc from a batch then do the test and it comes out at 2.2. If you take the same material you just worked on and do two more it could be 3 and 1.7.

    Really its a test but most companies go by the results.

    Simply its a unreliable bull shit test.

    Had a deal on low Vomi barley to a feed barn in Manitoba deal was we were moving grain from same two half sections put in 10000 bushel bins. First two semi loads were what was in each bin. They put that part in the deal.

    We loaded last week two loads on tues and then two on Wed. Well the first two passed the smell test no problem.

    Funny Easter and Lazy employees or Grain buyer now wants out as our price is 3.25 picked up vs 2.71 now.

    We were laughing if barley was 4.25 their would of been no problems with Wednesdays loads.

    But also its funny when asked for the vomi tests sheets they were destroyed or gone.

    Yea its fun to be a farmer.

    Loads were dumped as contract states but watch when bin two is started the Company will discount or reject. and thats the bin that had the lowest vomi of all our bins. ( Cargill truck mount tester unit for malt).

    So the games continue any one else find this all bull shit.

      Modernization of Canadian Grain Act should have been about modernizing grain quality control in the interest of producers.

      Including tests that are available today for FN, Vomi, and dockage using equipment that is normal like color sorters, gravity tables, air separators.

      If Fus (vomi), Midge, can be removed with these machines they should be classed as DKG not degrading factors.

      Instead it was all about making money for the CGC at farmers expense. It worked I may add $100 + mil profit.

It is obvious now that this Modernization was only about making money for the CGC they now have over 100 million of producers money and are increasing charges to make even more. All the while reducing services and regulations for farmers and industry.
