Interest rates

[15444]

I guess there are enough guys out there that don't give a shit, and need whatever they will give them. I am guessing you haven't demanded to be paid on the spot and then left with your load when it didn't happen? If you did, would they care? How many times can you do it before you are completely black-listed? Can you organize all your neighbors to do the same thing and withhold all the grain to a specific elevator? Can your neighbor's afford to withhold their production for 6 months or longer? Will the elevator call your bluff and just close rather than bow to the whim of the producer?

In hindsight, what really should be happening is you charging them interest for goods delivered without payment and taking it to court. Only have to win a few times before payment is prompt. But I am guessing you sign something at delivery with stipulations and small print that eliminates the possibility of you being paid in full at delivery, otherwise it would be theft and the police could be called.
