HRS Declassification Continues! Who else thinks this is a big game.

[FarmJunkie]

Red water is brand new and this is the first I have heard of the change of class. Kind of a piss off when u spend the money to try a new variety and they **** u over. Decent wheat very early maturity but they once again found a way to get us to spend more money on another new variety that they will probably reclassify next year. Unfortunately like SF3 says the wheat seed business is headed in the same direction as canola seed business.

so one needs to ask how the f$&k it got registered when unity , etc were being declassified for the same reason 3 years ago . maybe some of these pricks need a class action lawsuit laid on them after they soaked you for probably $15-17 /bu when they knew the gluten was nfg. ??? where in the f&$k is the govt agency when this shit is going on ? yea they really give a flying f$&k about the farmers

They also said they are closely reviewing AC Brandon wheat. Sounds like it is going to fail also.

i say move everything to cnhr and we will grow highest yielding varieties at american quality and we will get paid the same $$ we do for cwrs right now

I have a question. On Aug 1st 2018 there is 29 classes, most of which were CWRS will become CNHR. What happens to all the wheat in store in the elevators and terminals that was bought as CWRS and comingled. It should be all down graded to feed wheat. Because it is all blended and anything over 7.5 wheat of other classes in 3 CWRS becomes feed.

Who is going to take the hit on that?

[ColevilleH2S]

If gluten is such a big thing, why is the CWES class such a dead duck?

[SASKFARMER3]

If like poorboy calls it AC Brandon is under review then that proves this is a total horse shit play by seed groups.

AC Brandon is the number one wheat grown in Canada.

F#$K farmers wake up everyone is there for a pound of flesh and our bones are picked clean.

USeless people running all ag in Canada.

Farmers are dead last and falling further.

thats simple wm , no elevator co will take the hit . these rules don't apply to elevators only farmers . it will take 2-3 years to clean last of these varieties out . and every year or two , there will be more added as the seed co's quest to all "bought, expensive "seed comes to pass. soon it will cost $60/ac for seed to grow wheat as well. wait now , that won't work , no one will grow it............
if brandon is on the list , some heads need to roll at the agency that is registering these varieties in the first place
maybe when we buy a new variety we should make seed co sign an agreement that it won't be declassified for ten years???
maybe the wheat growers check off should go towards doing some gluten tests on these varieties that are being registered and declassified a year or two later, you know , independent ones,
red water would be a good place to start

Maybe time for a class action. I bought x wheat variety with the expectation i could clean and save my own seed for as long as i want. Now I am losing income because cnhr class is worth less.

[biglentil]

Its ridiculous do they honestly think the graincos are segregating the classes. The graincos sell based on HVK, Protein and Falling number. These changes just give more opportunity for the graincos to pay us less. Instead of keeping the industry honest they foster the opposite.

It will be interesting to see the results of baking tests on the CNHR class after this year's harvest.
Also, if there is a great variety that has now been put in the CNHR class it may still make sense to grow it.

The old american varieties in the cnhr class faller and prosper will out produce any cwrs that has been moved into the cnhr class by 10-25 percent. So basically is was a waste of time to have those cwrs varieties bred
