Why are marketing boards important in Canada??

Marketing boards in Africa
From what I have read and learned at college, Marketing Boards in Africa are used to ensure that farmers recieve the same price for a good, no matter what the world price is. They are government run entities and are often the only legal purchaser of a good for farmers. 129.244.133.201 (talk) 00:39, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

Board or enterprise?
There is not clarity in this article between what is a marketing board (set up by producers) and a state marketing enterprise (set up by the government - sometimes in collusion with producers). Both articles could be usefully merged and put into context re the chanegs that have happened as a result of the Uruguay Round of WTO and earlier. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.191.246.219 (talk) 17:36, 30 December 2012 (UTC)
