During the 1970-71 crop year, a procedure known as "pooling of grain" was introduced at the ports of Vancouver and Thunder Bay to reduce the amount of switching required. Under this system, all Wheat Board grain, that is export wheat, oats and barley(except selected lots), is placed at any terminal for unloading, no matter to which elevator company it is consigned. Time is saved by eliminating the switching formerly required to effect mandatory delivery to the elevator company indicated on the bill of lading. 1, record 1, English, - pooling%20of%20grain

Pendant la campagne agricole de 1970-1971, on a adopté aux ports de Vancouver et de Thunder Bay un procédé appelé «pool du grain», en vue de réduire les échanges. Suivant ce procédé, tout le grain de la Commission du blé, c'est-à-dire le blé, l'avoine et l'orge d'exportation (à l'exception de certains chargements) est stocké dans n'importe quel silo portuaire, quelle que soit la compagnie manutentionnaire à laquelle il a été consigné. On gagne ainsi un temps précieux en supprimant les manœuvres nécessitées jusque-là par l'obligation de livrer le grain à la compagnie de silos figurant sur la lettre de voiture. 1, record 1, French, - pool%20du%20grain

The Wheat Board achieves price stability for grain marketed by prairie producers though a price pooling system. All monies received by the Wheat Board from the sale of a particular king of grain, wheat, for example, are placed or "pooled" in a single fund. Separate pools are maintained each year for six kinds of grain. Each of these pools consists of the quantities of grain delivered by farmers during a crop year. 1, record 2, English, - price%20pooling%20system

La Commission du blé assure la stabilité des prix des céréales des Prairies grâce à un régime de mise en commun. Toutes les sommes que reçoit la Commission pour la vente d'une céréale, le blé par exemple, sont versées ou "mises en commun" dans un même fonds. Chaque année, on tient des comptes de mise en commun distincts pour six sortes de céréales. Chacun de ces comptes correspond à la quantité totale de céréales livrées par les producteurs au cours d'une campagne agricole. 1, record 2, French, - r%C3%A9gime%20de%20mise%20en%20commun

Procedures at Terminal Elevators. Stop pooling of feed barley cars. To improve the accountability for accepting barley with excreta, pooling of feed barley cars at Vancouver should be suspended. Country managers will then buy grain with excreta only if they are confident in their company's ability to clean it. If they are shipping to another company's terminal, they have to seek authorization and agree on a terminal cleaning charge. 2, record 3, English, - terminal%20cleaning

Canadian grain policy is in a period of transition. Government intervention in support of the sector is declining and being done in a more market neutral fashion. As a result, government programs are having a progressively smaller influence on production and marketing decisions. Major reforms are in progress in four areas.--Grain Transportation--Canadian Wheat Board Pooling--Transition Programs--Grain Safety Nets. 1, record 4, English, - Reform%20of%20Canadian%20Grain%20Policy

La politique canadienne des grains traverse une période de transition. L'État intervient moins pour appuyer le secteur, quand il intervient, il cherche à influer le moins possible sur les marchés. Ainsi, les programmes gouvernementaux ont de moins en moins d'incidence sur les décisions de production et de commercialisation. Des réformes en profondeur se déroulent sur quatre fronts: -- Transport des grains -- Régime de mise en commun de la Commission canadienne du blé -- La sécurité du revenu dans le secteur des grains -- Aide au transport de céréales fourragères. 1, record 4, French, - R%C3%A9forme%20de%20la%20politique%20canadienne%20des%20grains
