Grower accounting & settlement · Grain handling & elevators
Every bushel priced, settled, and paid.
A grower hauls in, then prices deferred bushels by phone weeks later. Settlement has to tie the scale ticket, contract, dockage, shrink, and the right day's cash bid.
The reality
Settlement is a reconciliation problem.
A grower hauls in, a scale ticket is cut with test weight, moisture, and dockage, and weeks later they call to price deferred bushels — and the settlement has to tie the ticket, the contract, the discount schedule, and the day's cash bid together without error.
The operator owns settlement end to end: it captures the scale ticket, applies grade discounts and shrink, records the price election against the contract, and issues the settlement statement and check, with every bushel accounted for.
