Talking about the Future

Security of payment, pooling, harvest finance and payment flexibility will be some of the key features of AWB’s new wheat pooling options for Australian wheat growers in 2008/09.

AWB will cover the national wheat crop through two regional wheat pools, for West Australian and Eastern Australian markets. The two pools will reflect the markets for wheat from those regions, allowing participants to capture value unique to their location.

Importantly, AWB’s wheat pools will continue to offer unrivalled security including a trust structure minimising exposure to pooled assets, and a range of proven, industry leading pool payment options.

AWB recently completed a series of wheat marketing seminars across Australia, to give wheat growers an insight into the future direction of Australia’s wheat industry under the new wheat marketing system.

If you have questions about the new offer, please speak with your local grain marketer or contact the AWB Grower Service Centre on 1800 054 433.
