UFA & Grainsconnect Canada Premium Program

Save on seed, sell at a premium. GrainsConnect Canada (GCC) and UFA are excited to introduce a new program for producers to help you maximize your returns.

Huxley Premium Program

Step One

• Work with your UFA Customer Account Manager to determine the right seed for your farm’s growing conditions.
• Receive a rebate of up to $12/bag on seed purchases through UFA.
• Together with your Merchant at GCC establish a total contracted quantity of acres. Receive $5/MT above posted bid prices for canola. You decide and control the acres contracted.

Step Two

• If the contracted acres seeded with UFA purchased seed meet or exceed the contracted specifications, GCC will purchase the crop for $5/MT above the posted bid price (not including specials).
• Additional yields over agreed tonnage per acre have the opportunity to qualify for the $5 premium above posted bid.
• Canola specifications: #1 Canola as per CGC Specs.

Step Three

• For canola, 80% of contracted tonnes are executed evenly in prescribed shipment windows, producers determine the month when they want their acres priced.
• Within each window, there is the option to distribute the remaining 20% of the contracted tonnes. GCC will call for delivery of tonnes in each contracted shipment window.

Step Four

• The seed rebate of up to $12/bag will be paid in August 2021, based on bags of seed purchased from UFA.
• The seed rebate is in addition to any grower programming rebates or potential patronage dividends declared on seed purchases.
