| dc.description | This discusses a previously published article on "How Does the Local Elevator Determine a Price for Malting Barley," in which the local elevator's practices and procedures for buying malting barley from farmer patrons were described. A survey was included that was conducted at the Minneapolis Grain Exchange to present the practices used by those who sell or buy barley for the various firms operating at the Minneapolis Grain Exchange. The primary purpose of this survey was to acquaint the country elevator managers,
farmers and others in the trade with the fundamentals and variations in market quotations, barley selling and buying practices and other basic trade factors. | |
