Parsley I agree with your observation here, but up until cps wheat cwb resisted the volume over quality as it was always worried about co-mingling. They have observed the elevator companies too. For the record Dr. DePaw at Swift current had cps available ten years before they finally took a chance on it in 1982-83 HW320. Check me on that,it will be close but my memory dims too. There are some exciting markets especially malts. It is only lately that the mindset has changed in grainhandling. If they could put it all in one bin they would. Ridiculous to the extreme. Very few egg heads in the biz till lately, so tough sell. As far as inputs you bet they will always fund a variety that shows yield promise, but not as bad as American crop dev. They have fumbled this ball till now to our advantage. USDA has put forth incentives to grow Hard white winter wheat. As well as purity gaurantees to draw in fussy high priced buyers.(Japan, South Korea, etc.) but are placing it all at risk with gmo driven wants of big farm-ape-hud-icals rearing it's ugly head through University funding.
