| I agree with your premise, however, I was looking at some of the volume stats like milofarmer brought up, but just new crop contracts. Still about 200-250,000/day (1.0 to 1.3 Billion) so while it would certainly dilute the market more, and temper higher prices as you state, over time it seems that the market could handle more farmer selling.
And besides, about half of all farmers would rather buy the board than hedge their production, soo... if we can encourage more of that.....
But, farming isn't collective, it is individualized. If a couple of guys are camping in the forest and get chased by a bear, you don't have to be able to run faster than said bear, just faster than the other guy....
