Yep I drove up the Calingiri to Miling line today. I remember thinking why the hell are all those open bulk heads still full of grain ... This should have been emptied before the northern hemisphere harvest begin to draw near. I tend think our CBH is in a bit of trouble myself. LAck of capital! They really needed to be able to list to raise the capital needed to invest in capacity. Particularly after two droughts.
I've got no choice but to build on farm storage as there is the risk of going back to tolls and debentures. Rather invest in my own efficiency I think than any socialist type model and add value to my farm. Only problem is the grain silos are hyperinflating too. Another reason forcing my hand. We'll be able to store 2000t on farm by this harvest. I'll be planting my baudin at the end of the week as I want to be delivering that barley to MCG when everyone else is onto canola ...
