Farmer contracts

Beginning January 11, 2012, the CWB will offer sign-up for Series B delivery contracts for all classes of wheat (except feed wheat). Series C delivery contracts are currently under review and may be offered later in the 2011-12 crop year.

The CWB will be phasing out existing programs including New-pool pricing, the Churchill Storage and the Wheat Storage Program as of August 1, 2012.

They'll be replaced by an exciting portfolio of new, farmer-focused programs to add value to your farm.

Program details will be announced throughout 2012. For a sneak peak at CWB programs, read about our New programs for a new era (PDF)

The CWB will not offer the Churchill Storage Program or the Wheat Storage Program for 2012-13.

Delivery contract programs

A delivery contract is an offer from you that becomes a binding contract when accepted by the CWB. It specifies the type, grade and quantity of grain you will deliver. You must have a delivery contract signed up before receiving a cash ticket for grain delivered to an elevator.

  • Series contracts: Series contracts are the most common method of contracting grain for delivery. This option allows you to choose the type, grade and quantity of grain for delivery. Information sheet
  • Guaranteed Delivery Contract (GDC): Allows you to contract grain for a defined delivery period to meet specific sales requirements.
  • Identity Preserved Contract Program: Offers you added-value incentives to produce new or special wheat, durum or barley varieties.
  • Selected Barley Storage and Delivery Contract: Available for malting, pearl and pot barley on a Selected Barley Storage and Delivery Contract. You will receive storage payments until you deliver.
  • Cash Buy: The Cash Buy program gives you an upfront, market-based cash price for grain delivered for domestic human consumption.
  • GrainFlo: GrainFlo is a delivery contract for wheat and durum that lets you choose from two delivery periods and receive storage payments. (Sign-up for 2011-12 GrainFlo begins in October).
