Ottawa Cuts Wheat Payment by Twenty Cents in New Crop Year
Ottawa announces a 20 cent cut in the initial wheat payment as Canada adopts a two price system for grain used domestically. The change aims to balance production with demand amid 450 million bushels of unsold grain and potential price effects on bread. Initial payments are set at $1.50 for No.1 Manitoba Northern wheat, 60 cents for No.2 CW oats, and 91 cents for No.3 CW six row barley.
