Farmer Owned Inland Terminals Support CWB

[Incognito]

Does Dreyfus market for SWP along with AC Toepher, Parsley?

What are the contracting terms. do you know? What % to market? Isn't SWP supposed to be soley supplying the concrete?

If I were a multinational, I wouldn't be keen to build concrete in Canada for the grain trade, as all feed mills, elevators, grain cleanng facilities etc. are "designated as works for the general advantage of Canada". Imangine!

The current legislation never ceases to horrify me.

Most of the multinationals access a lot of countries now, for the CWB, don't they incognito?

Aren't most CWB sales handled by the Accreditied Agencies anyhow?

I thonk Incognito was asking about Dreyfus and SWP - what arrangement (if any) between LDC and SWP are you talking about? (I have the same question.)

As for Accredited Exporters doing the sales - I understand it's about half of exports (give or take). But this really doesn't mean much - the Japanese Food Agency (one of our best customers) buys exclusively through AEs - but its a tender process whereby the AE simply facilitates the deal. The CWB still "controls" the sale. I think its more tradition than anything.

WILL Dreyfus market for SWP? There is that rumour out there, but that does not mean it is the truth. Perhaps it is just speculation circulating in the farm community. Good partnership potential in any case.
