Welcome to the Open Wheat and Barley Markets Home Page

On August 1, 2012, an Open Wheat and Barley Market became the new reality for Alberta wheat and barley growers. Alberta Agricultural and Rural Development is working to assist Alberta wheat and barley farmers in this transition, and wishes to assist these growers in making decisions to do the right things for their businesses and families. We will create awareness, provide information, knowledge and decision making tools to Alberta wheat and barley growers about the impact of the changes due to Marketing Freedom for Grain Farmer’s Act. These changes will affect grain marketing and have a financial impact on their farms.
