Abstract: The unique nature of the white wheat grading specification and accompanying price discounting schedule creates the opportunity for large Pacific Northwest grain elevator firms to realize returns form white wheat blending. This paper estimates the potential size of these returns for the period 1969 to 1979, assuming optimal blending practices were employed.
