  • Grower Representation and Its Impact on the Governance Structure of the Australian Grains Industry Terence C Farrell Α
    Grower Representation and its Impact on the Governance Structure of the Australian Grains Industry Terence C Farrell α Abstract The Australian wheat industry has changed considerably in structure and governance during the past 15 years. The most important changes have been the deregulation of the domestic market and privatisation of the former Australian Wheat Board into AWB Limited. Through these changes growers have become shareholders in the various companies. Governance of the monopsonistic relationship between AWB Limited and AWB International by the Federal Minister of Agriculture and the Grains Council of Australia through the Wheat Export Authority has proved ineffective. Hence a national organisation that represents shareholders is recommended to increase grower governance of the supply chain and marketing of wheat. Key Words: Grain, Marketing, Infrastructure, Competition and Governance. The presentation of this paper was sponsored by Grain Growers Association. The views presented in this paper are strictly those of the author and may not coincide with the views or opinions of Grain Growers Association or its members. Contributed paper presented to the 48th Australian Agricultural and Resource Economics Society Conference, Melbourne, February 11-13, 2004.

The inquiry and its aftermath provided an opportunity for proponents of unregulated trade in wheat to press for the removal of the AWB’s control of export sales. This article is a review of the history of the development and dismantling of wheat marketing regulation in Australia, treated as a case study to illustrate two things: the shift in the prevailing values in Australian agricultural policy over the last 35 years; and the way in which legislative cycles, reviews, institutional change and particular events provide opportunities for policy advocates to press for change, in this case over at least 40 years. It is argued here that the dominant paradigm for trading agricultural commodities shifted from one based on agrarian collectivism and sectoral stabilisation to a less regulated system with the focus on the values of efficiency and competitiveness. In November 2005 the Australian Government established an inquiry with the powers of a Royal Commission headed by Terence Cole to investigate allegations that the corporation AWB Limited1 (formerly the statutory authority Australian Wheat Board) had made payments to Saddam Hussein’s regime in Iraq through a Jordanian-based transport company in order to secure wheat sales, accusations originally raised by the UN Oil-for-Food inquiry headed by Paul Volker.

  • Using Digital Image Analysis for Assessing the Quality of Wheat and Barley
    Using Digital Image Analysis for Assessing the Quality of Wheat and Barley Bruce Gordon Armstrong Bachelor of Applied Science (Honours) Master of Applied Science Thesis This Thesis is Submitted to Fulfil the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Applied Science by Research School of Science and Engineering University of Ballarat PO Box 663 University Drive, Mt. Helen Ballarat, Victoria 3353 Australia Submitted in December 2004 Abstract This thesis explores the issues involved in developing a relatively low-cost Digital Imaging Analysis (DIA) system for the quality assessment of wheat and barley using commonly available equipment. It also explores the capability of such a system to provide rapid and accurate assessments. The research confirms that it is possible to devise such a system using flatbed scanners for image capture and conventional personal computers for the image analysis. However, it is necessary to modify the scanners, place them in a cabinet and develop special indented trays to hold the grain samples for optimal results. It is also necessary to develop complex software to undertake the analysis. The small sample sizes and non-destructive DIA methods will be especially beneficial to grain breeders and others who only have limited amounts of grain to work with. The DIA system developed (SeedCount) is capable of making very accurate counts of grain, and thus produces accurate thousand kernel weight assessments. Initially these counts were totally dependent on a novel (now patented) counting algorithm. The system can also make accurate morphological measurements of the kernel length, width and area that are limited in accuracy primarily by the image’s resolution.

  • An Economic Analysis of Removing the Canadian Wheat Board's Single
    An Economic Analysis of Removing the Canadian Wheat Board’s Single Desk Authority and Rail Deregulation in Western Canada by Janelle Wallace A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE Department of Agribusiness and Agricultural Economics University of Manitoba Winnipeg Copyright © 2011 by Janelle Wallace Abstract Wheat is the most common cereal crop grown by farmers in Western Canada and is mainly used for export. The marketing structure for wheat in Western Canada is unique. The Canadian Wheat Board (CWB), a statutory marketing board, is mandated to sell all wheat grown by farmers for human consumption in Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and the Peace River region of British Columbia. Using historical price and basis data, this research attempts to quantify the economics of the current marketing structure for wheat in Western Canada. Simulations are developed to determine the economic profits and risk that could have been realized in an open market considering scenarios for three potential changes in the grain handling and transportation system (GHTS) and four alternative marketing strategies. Each are evaluated using a utility-based risk model to ascertain the most preferred marketing environment in terms of expected profit and risk. ii Acknowledgements I would like to thank my supervisor, Dr. Fabio Mattos (Department of Agribusiness and Agricultural Economics, University of Manitoba), for all your guidance during this research and for always making time for me. I would also like to acknowledge Dr. Jared Carlberg (Department of Agribusiness and Agricultural Economics, University of Manitoba), for encouraging me to pursue my education further and guiding me through the graduate studies program.

  • AWB Limited, and Its Affiliated Companies
    UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE BEFORE THE SECRETARY OF AGRICULTURE In re: ) DNS-FAS Docket No. 08-0053 ) AWB LTD. and its Affiliated Companies, ) ) Petitioner ) Decision and Order This decision and order is issued pursuant to 7 C.F.R. § 3017.890 that governs appeals of debarment and suspensions under 7 C.F.R. §§ 3017.25-.1020, the regulations that implement a governmentwide system of debarment and suspension for the United States Department of Agriculture’s nonprocurement activities. The purpose of the regulations is stated at 7 C.F.R. § 3017.110: (a) To protect the public interest, the Federal Government ensures the integrity of Federal programs by conducting business only with responsible persons. (b) A Federal agency uses the nonprocurement debarment and suspension system to exclude from Federal programs persons who are not presently responsible. (c) An exclusion is a serious action that a Federal agency may take only to protect the public interest. A Federal agency may not exclude a person for the purposes of punishment. AWB LTD has appealed the December 20, 2007 decision of Michael W. Yost, Administrator of the Foreign Agricultural Services (“FAS”), United States Department of Agriculture, to debar AWB and certain of its affiliates from participation in government programs for two years. AWB argues that the decision should be reversed and vacated because: (1) it is untimely and procedurally flawed; (2) it is invalid under 7 C.F.R. § 3017.890; and (3) it failed to consider the time AWB had already been suspended. 1 Upon consideration of the Administrator’s decision, the underlying administrative record (“AR”) and the arguments of the parties, I am affirming the two-year debarment of AWB LTD and the named affiliated companies as fully supported by the administrative record and the controlling regulations.
