Ashburn, GA, (very close to Heaven!) | What kind of deduct schedule do your elevators have on wheat? Moisture, foreign material, and test weight? This "4 for 1" down to 13% really gets next to me, as is being practiced by one area elevator. I certainly don't expect an elevator to buy the extra water I am delivering, and understand that he needs compensation for drying it, but pay me for every bushel I deliver, and charge me to remove the moisture. They seem to do the second, but not the first. This affects farm production history in establishing base, as well as APH. It sounds like a pretty standard practice down here, but previously I heard "2 for 1", which is bad enough. Pu
