DescriptionRevised the implementation date from 1 August to 10 June 2019 for the new wheat standards, due to concerns from grain industry representatives. The introduction was set one month after the beginning of the marketing year (July), and could have created issues with the monitoring of wheat delivery to silos following harvest.
