ANNOUNCEMENTS
Tues Mar 31, The USDA report confirms the US farmer loves to plant corn. 1 mil extra ac vs expectations, and 1 mil less beans. Wheat is down 1 mil as expected. Now the market likely second guesses itself given the fertilizer and fuel situation.
Did you know that we will have optional delivery points on new crop contracts? Meaning if it works out better for you to deliver direct to the Port, we will pay you a freight spread above your contract to deliver direct. What’s the advantage?
1. Depending on your location, you may gain all the freight spread and more
2. If your grain is too wet just deliver to elevator and don’t delay harvest
3. If boats are late (almost always) your combine isn’t sitting still.
4. With wheat, falling number discounts/rejections are horrendous so you might better be tied to the largest feed wheat shipper east of Toronto until you know your quality.
Call if you have questions.
Call for direct ship bids for on farm grains. We need old crop wheat and beans delivered Picton in Feb and March or FOB all commodities.
