Farmer payments

Farmers receive initial payments when deliveries are made to the Canadian Wheat Board (CWB). The initial payment represents only a portion of the total expected value of the grain. When market circumstances warrant, farmers may also receive adjustment, interim and final payments. Adjustment payments occur during the course of a crop year when increases are made to initial payments. Only farmers who delivered prior to the initial payment increase would receive an adjustment payment. An interim payment is paid after the end of a crop year and is like an advance on the final payment. Final payments represent the remaining portion of money still owing to farmers after all crop year marketing costs have been deducted.
