MARKETING OF GENETICALLY ENHANCED CORN 2000
In the October, 1999 issue of the Ontario Corn Producer, OCPA provided
a listing of all licensed corn dealers who let us know by August 31st which elevator locations would be receiving
all corn for purchase in the fall of 1999 (i.e., including corn not approved for European Union importation).
The following listing is an update for the 2000 crop and is subject to change. This list may not be complete. Producers are encouraged to contact buyers directly for their buying policy, updates
and verification of delivery details. Also, you will note that
some dealers have requested notations be included with the listing.
Licensed dealers were requested to provide updates by February 28, 2000. For dealers who did not respond with
updates, the listing remains the same as that provided in October.
OCPA is providing this information as a convenience to its members and
accepts no responsibility nor liability for the accuracy or completeness of the information provided.
