Tolga Maize Dispute Brings Shellers and Growers Together

A large gathering of growers and shellers met at the Memorial Wall to press for changes in maize handling. Debate centered on the Board's preference clause and the cost of shelling versus carting to silos, with farmers arguing the system unfairly penalizes those delivering from the field.

Maize Board debate on shellers costs and preference policy

The Maize Board meeting examined funding for shellers and whether costs should come from crop proceeds. G C Finch argued the board must finance shellers, foresee savings of about 1 shilling per ton, and warned against favoritism. Amendments sought equal access at silos and to limit preferential treatment, with several motions carried and a plan to form a negotiating group.
