Viterra seeks grower feedback on draft segregations

Viterra is encouraging growers to provide feedback on its draft segregation plan for the 2024-25 harvest to help ensure segregations match their needs.

Key changes include an overall increase in segregations for Nipper type lentils, genetically modified canola and Commodus malt barley, following the variety receiving its malt accreditation.

Segregations for field peas and Spartacus, Compass and Planet malt barley have reduced based on a decline in plantings.

Viterra general manager of operations Gavin Cavanagh said the draft segregation plans were based on discussions with growers on what they planned to plant this year.

“We have been working with our grower customers to understand what they will grow this season and use this information to help inform our segregations, while also considering how we can maximise elevation capacity and minimise turnaround times during harvest,” he said.

“We encourage growers to get in touch to provide their feedback on what we are planning to receive at their local site to help us match segregations to their needs.”

Growers can provide feedback by contacting their local grower relationship manager, operations manager or site contact, or online through viterra.com.au/Growers/Delivering-and-storing/Segregation-plan
