    Lifer, you hit it on the head!
    Rolf and the FCPP are not coming up with their own numbers on this report. You can beleive whatever you want about the Rolf Penner the FCPP, the CWB, etc but look at it for yourself. The prices used in this article are out there for anyone to double-check for themselves.
    Like someone else posted, the horrible job the CWB has been doing is something most farmers have been aware of for years, its the general public that needs to be informed on these outrageous price discrepencies.

      Dear Charlie,

      Thanks for taking on the tuff end of the Agri-ville responsibilities... Being a Cop in cyber-space is like being a target in a charity dunk tank event on a cold day!

      When your body hits that cold water... it always makes you feel that being somewhere else would be more comfortable/fun at that moment!

      Thanks again for trying to keep us on the straight and level above the tree line!

      Sincerely,
      TJ

        Further to padron's comment: <i>I like that the CWB finally started paying barley growers who carry their malt barley until later in the crop year but this premium is not market value and I don't think it is available for wheat (I stand to be corrected)</i>.

        I agree - finally some semblance of market structures. <b>BUT</b> we need to remember that this is still a pool. If they are tacking on premiums for later delivery, they're coming straight out of the pool - and the early deliverers are paying for it.

        Seems every time you turn around the notion of the pool being equitable gets further and further eroded......
