Canadian Wheat Board "buyer" of wheat and barley. It was a marketing agency acting on behalf of Western Canadian farmers, passing all profits from its operation back to farmers. Its market power over wheat and barley marketing was referred to as the "Single Desk".

The Canadian Wheat Board changed its name to simply CWB, reflecting its changed status. CWB
