The Canadian Wheat Board has sent another recommendation to the federal government for an increase to the 2010-11 initial payments for wheat, durum and barley.

If approved, payments would increase in the range of $33 to $75 per tonne.

This marks the third request for an increase to the 2010-11 initial payments. The Board received approval for increases in late November and late January.
