Informational poster produced by the Canadian Wheat Board (CWB) outlining the 2000-2001 Freight Adjustment Factors (FAFs). The poster explains what FAFs are, and includes a table of figures reflecting the changes to FAFs from 1995-2001. The poster additionally includes 5 maps overlaid with colour-coded graphics showing the CWB's catchment areas for different crop types [Wheat; Durum; Canadian Western Extra Strong (CWES) Wheat; Designated Barley; and Feed Barley].

"What Are FAFs? FAFs were established in 1995, when the federal government changed the CWB pooling basis points. FAFs are an adjustment to wheat, durum wheat and barley freight costs based on where farmers deliver and the destination of their grain. As such, FAFs may change from year to year, with the variations in the CWB's overall sales program. ... FAFs are updated yearly to reflect expected production, market factors and port shipping capacities. FAFs may also change during the crop year to reflect changes in freight rates."
