We are specialists in providing higher value to end-users by contract growing with farmers for grains requiring precise specifications. We identity preserve the crop from seed to harvest right through the shipping process direct to the buyer's port of destination or processing plant.
Our programs include:
Warburtons is one of the most successful and largest bakeries in the United Kingdom. Paterson Grain contracts with them to grow very specific varieties and qualities of Canadian Wheat. We administer the contracts with the grower, handle and maintain the identity of the crop throughout the grain handling system and in turn the grower receives a greater return than with standard varieties. We also support the grower with crop consultation services, seed, fertilizer, and provide access to our grain handling system and transportation services.
In partnership with the Canadian Wheat Board and FP Genetics, Paterson Grain offers Canada's first Hard White Spring Wheat variety to customers on a global basis. This class of wheat combines the superior quality attributes of Canadian Western Red Spring Wheat (CWRS) along with the milling and flour color benefits found in white wheat. Again, we can identity preserve the crop as stated above.
Paterson Grain is responsible for developing Canada's first NON-GMO Soybean program. With the expertise developed from the earlier Warburton program we adopted similar practices to include soybeans. This is a complete audited identity preserved system tailored to meet the specific needs of our end-user buyers.
