Value-added incentive program
The CWB offers a value-added direct delivery incentive program (VIP) that will put more money into your pocket.
Farmers who deliver their wheat and barley directly to eligible mills and malting plants in Western Canada that are licensed and bonded by the Canada Grain Commission will earn a $3 per tonne premium.
The CWB will pay you monthly for direct delivery.
The VIP is part of the CWB's on-going commitment to value-added processing on the Prairies. The program will provide earlier delivery opportunities for you, will reduce storage and carry costs for the CWB and has the potential to lower your handling costs.
Current CWB carrying costs range between $3 and $4 dollars per tonne when grain sits in the elevator - this is the amount paid to the handling company. Through the VIP, money that would have been paid to a grain company is instead paid to you. Millers and maltsters will also benefit from more timely access to the grade and quantity of wheat, durum and malting barley required.
Getting the VIP-premium is easy. The CWB will automatically issue cheques for direct delivery premiums based on cash tickets submitted by mills and malting plants.
CashPlus contracts are eligible for premiums from the Value-added incentive program.
