Mate the freight advantage is real and even if it is only $1 a tonne, over 5000 tonne that is better in my pocket than shared with people I don't know! Let me assure you the freight advantage WA has over the East is real and it is pure profit. Alpha what planet are you on? It is all about freight with bulk exports! I mean the difference between me and someone 100kms further away from port is at least $7/tonne. And that was with diesel priced with oil at $57/barrel. Have you ever heard of basis? That figure is only going to get worse. You are digging from your armchair and not the real world. Just look at the difference between feed barley prices this harvest for an deregulating WA market and a statuatorily controlled SA barley market! SA used to always have higher prices than us. Their growers are fuming?
