CWB annual report

[craig]

I have been going through annual report and will post some things from the report that need further discussion.
In reference to the PPO accounts the following statement.
The CWB bears the risk of the program and retains the benefits of the program.

re the contingency fund.
One of the purposes of the fund is to cover defecits or retain surpluses from the PPO's. Question what are the other purposes?

Re admin of PPO's
Admin cost has gone from $.25 to $1.05 per tonne in last year. Not suggesting it is not right just pointing it out.

Final point
Can someone explain the approximately 7 million shortfall between sales returns for PPO's to what was paid producers?

Don't mean to take away from your ideas but how many farmers have read the annual report? Contains interesting information including elements of the CWB business plan and performance measures. This is in addition to the normal accounting processes around the allocation of payments and the producer pricing options. Given the importance of CWB in your business, this is a document that should be read cover to cover by all farmers.

Charlie disappointed in the lack of response to this post. I agree that the report does provide some interesting insites into the operation of the CWB. My comments relate to reading between the lines.
