CWB Producer Survey Released

Just note that the full powerpoint presentation/interview schedule as well as the 2006 survey are available. Lots of paper to print but well worth looking at.

I just went through the power point presentation and my conclusion is that the survey shows there is an almost even split between CWB supporters and free market players. The CWB can be accused of wording the survey to get the results it wanted just as it claims the government worded the plebisite to get the result they wanted Why at the end of the day can't half the farmers be given the opportunity to go a different direction than operating under the CWB. I suspect that if the survey was based on tonnage delivered to the board you would find a much higher percentage favoring an open market. The question regarding whether the private trade can sell for more than the CWB is a stupid question. As a producer I am concerned about what I get paid.
