Standard CGC Bean Samples RecommendedWINNIPEG - Dec 7/04 - SNS -- The Canadian Grain Commission's (CGC) Eastern Standards Committee (ESC) has recommended the CGC adopt standard samples for No 1 Canada yellow soybeans and as a visual guide for "good natural color" in pea beans or navy beans. Standard samples and visual guides are used as visual references by both CGC and grain industry inspectors. A standard sample is a sample of grain that represents the minimum visual quality for a grade of grain. Standard samples take into account specific grading factors that are influenced by environmental growing conditions. Visual guides represent the degree to which a specific grading factor can be accepted in a grade. The ESC reviews and recommends standard samples. The CGC then designates the standard samples for the crop year. Standard samples previously adopted for other grades and grains will continue to be used.
