The Canadian Wheat Board has introduced measures to help farmers deliver grain in the wake of the late harvest.Series B delivery calls will start Nov. 1, which is the last day for Series A sign-up. Most Series B calls will be the same as on existing Series A.The early start for Series B will allow farmers to immediately deliver on that series, even if they are still unsure of their grade or volume and cannot sign up Series A by Nov. 1.The board has also announced a Guaranteed Delivery Contract (GDC) for No. 1 and 2 Canada Western amber durum. The contract provides 100 percent acceptance and is in addition to the Series A and B sign-up.The board is encouraging farmers to deliver durum whenever possible to meet existing sales commitments to customers.
