Post-Harvest Considerations

Where will carinata grain be processed?

Nuseed will be building and announcing a network of local elevation points for growers to deliver their harvested grain. Delivery locations will be available prior to harvest. Producers are required to contact Nuseed no later than two weeks prior to the expected time of harvest.

Who will be responsible for freight?

The producer is to deliver grain at their own expense for delivery points at or within 100 miles (one-way) of field location. For delivery points greater than 100 miles, Nuseed will organize freight based on the rates provided in the grower contract. The producer can elect to deliver the grain for the contract price if they desire.

Is there any dockage involved?

All carinata grain produced will be graded. All dockage will be discounted. Specific grain grading protocols and the complete discount schedule are provided in the grower contract.
