GTA Wheat Trading Standards 201 4 /1 5 © Effective date: 1 August 201 4 Page 55 of 94 SECTION 5 METHODS AND PROCEDURES 5.1 Introduction The following section details methods and procedures to be used for the assessment of various quality parameters as outlined in this Manual. The methods outlined are either Reference Methods or Field Assessment Methods. Field Assessment Methods are included as a guide to industry where Reference Methods may not be able to be implemented . Note that Field Assessment Methods must equate to the Reference Method for the applicable test method. In all instances of disputes, test results produced by trade - certified equipment take precedence over non - trade certified equipment and methods. Where the dispute involves only non trade - certified equipment or test methods, the reference method takes precedence over the field assessment method. Depending on the test to be conducted, variations may exist due to equipment used. Procedures outline d are a guide for industry. Industry is free to develop their own Operational Procedures for each test and activity based on their own circumstances . At all times industry use of apparatus outlined in this Standard must comply with the manufacturers’ recom mendations for occupational health and safety and training.

Heat Damaged, Bin Burnt , Storage Mould Heat D amaged or B in B urnt Heat damaged or bin burnt refers to those kernels that have become discoloured due to exposure to severe heat during storage or an incorrect artificial drying technique. Affected grains appear reddish brown, or in severe cases, blackened. Storage M ould Storage M ould refer s to kernels that have become affected by the development of fungi or bacteria due to an increase in grain moisture levels during storage. Affected grains appear discoloured and visibly affected by mould. The above grain defects have been categorised toge ther as the differences between them can be difficult to distinguish. This definition is to be read in conjunction with the photo in the Visual Recognition Standards Guide which depicts the minimum affected standard for a grain to be classified as Heat Da maged, Bin Burnt or Storage Mould . Hit and Miss In relation to screen slots, refers to the sequence of slots on the screen when viewing along a row facing the direction of the slots. That is, the screen i s made of a series of slots and “no slots” in sequence equidistant.

To fully understand and accurately implement the wheat Standards, reference should be made to other relevant sections in this Manual , includ ing: Definitions Variet y Master l ist Methods & Procedures Reference Materials such as the Visual Recognition Standards Guide Other sections of the GT A Standards Manual should also be perused for general guidance on activ ities associated with implementation of these Standards. As stated previously, the following Standards are applicable at the time of publishing of this Manual. Variations and new Grades may exist and industry is encouraged to keep updated with changes via reviewing the GT A website and other relevant industry information sources.
2. GTA Wheat Trading Standards 201 4 /1 5 © Effective date: 1 August 201 4 Page 2 of 94 S ECTION 1 INTRODUCTION General Since 1999 G rain T rade A ustralia (GTA) has on an annual basis reviewed, produced and published on behalf of industry Wheat Trading Standards (Standards) through its Standards Committee (Committee) . In order to provide a consistent message to both domestic industry and international buyers, GTA encourages input into development of these S tandards. Additionally, we urge industry to use the S tandards contained w ithin this Manual as applicable when buyin g and trading Australian wheat. Considerations to the Standards This section of the Manual relating to wheat has been produced following the annual review by GT A of S tandards . There are various sections of this Manual relating to S tandards and associated procedures and industry is encourage d to take account of all relevant sections when applying these S tandards to wheat bought and traded domestically or internationally . The Grades referred to in this document are a combination of : Grades commo nly introduced across the country on an annual basis and are generally the same in each State where wheat is grown or traded Grades that may not be introduced every season or only intro duced in a regional area . These grades may be created f or various reaso ns including to meet the specific quality requirements of a customer , as specific variet y segregations or to deal with specific quality issues with harvested grain in a localised area Industry should note the list of Grades in this Manual is not exhaustive. Variations to Standards Whilst the information in this Manual is current at time of publication, you will need to monitor the GT A Member Updates , the GT A website ( www.graintrade.org.au ) and other applicable information to ensure that you are aware of the changes to the Standards and the impact on your own trading arrangements. Varieties Approved and recommended varieties to be grown and acceptable within each class are listed within this document. The approval of each variety within a class is determined by a group external to GT A. V ariety integrity and correct variety assessment is an integral part of the grain classification and S tandards application process . GT A endorses the variet y classifications as listed in this Manual and encourages all industry to follow the approved variet y Master list as listed in this Manual where relevant . Changes to variet y classifications may occur at any time during the season following the publication of this Manual. As these changes will not necessarily be included in this Manual industry should implement their own procedures for monitor ing the variet y classification process. Timing of Standards Development The S tandards outlined in this Manual are applicable for the entire season of 2014 / 15 . Standards apply to grain assessed as per these Standards from 1 August 2014 to 31 July 20 15 .

11. GTA Wheat Trading Standards 201 4 /1 5 © Effective date: 1 August 201 4 Page 11 of 94 National Residue Survey The National Residue Survey ( NRS ) gathers information and supplies chemical residue results on domestic and export grain commodities. The NRS results show Australian grain is of a high quality wit h respect to residues and contaminants. All grain exporters , container packers , bulk export terminal operators, Bulk Handling Companies and processors are encouraged to actively participate in the NRS grains residue monitoring program. Contravention of an overseas MRL may cause the rejection of cargoes resulting in severe financial cost being incurred and potentially jeopardising Australian grain into that market. Information about the NRS is located at : http://www.daff.gov.au/agriculture - food/nrs . Nil Nil in these S tandards means a level of zero in a half litre sample representative of the entire load (or parcel of grain being assessed) and/or not detected in the load or in/on the delivery vessel at any stage of the receival process. Objectionable Material Objectionable M aterial refers to objectionable foreign matter that may or may not be otherwise stated in these S tandards which has the ability to degrade the hygiene of wheat, become a food safety issue of concern or has a commercially unacceptable odour. This includes but is not limited to the following : Animal Material This refers to meat meal, bone meal, poultry offal, meal or an y other animal proteins. Animal M aterial also includes carcasses of dead animals such as rats and mice. Odour A commercially unacceptable O dour is defined as a sour , musty or other objectionable odour emanating from the wheat which is not natural or normally associated with wheat. Odour may be caused by various means which may or may not be physically discernable in the sample being assessed . Stick A S tick is defined as ligneous material greater than 1cm in length and 0.5cm in diameter. Note tha t crop stubble greater than 3cm in length and 1cm in diameter is defined as a S tick. Smaller material is included in Other Foreign Material. Tainting Agents A Tainting A gent i s any contaminant that impart s a smell or taint to wheat. It include s but is not limited to plant parts and seeds of Eucalyptus spp . Water The addition of water to grain prior to delivery is a prohibited practice. Other This refers to any other commercially unacceptable contaminant such as animal excreta, glass, concrete , fer tiliser or metal.

Proceed to test th e slot with the RED (NO GO) end as follows: I f the RED (NO GO) end does not go through then the slot size is less than the nominated size of the RED end and greater than the nominated size of the Green End, hence the slot is within the accepted range and passes. If the RED (NO GO) end does go through then th e slot fails . Record this event and move on to the next slot. Proceed to test all 74 slots, recording each failure. 0 to 25 slots is an acceptable failure rate. If the screen meets the tolerances: Record results on the equip ment record Affix the relevant calibration sticker to the side of the sieve (not the catch pan) 5.19.6 References Not applicable.
10. GTA Wheat Trading Standards 201 4 /1 5 © Effective date: 1 August 201 4 Page 10 of 94 Insect Damaged These are grains eaten in part by S tored G rain I nsects and any field pests of grains including Heliothis spp . Any visible insect damage to the grain is to be classified as defective . This definition is to be read in conjunction with the photo in the Visual Recognition Standards Guide which depicts the minimum affected standard for a grain to be classified as Insect Damaged . Insects – Large and Small These are insect contaminants of grain that do not cause damage to stored grains. There are separate tolerances for Large and Small Insects. They include but are not restricted to: Large Insects Small Insects Desiantha Weevil ( Desiantha spp ) Aphids Grasshoppers , Locusts Minute Mould Beetle (Corticaria spp) Hairy Fungus Beetle ( Typhaea stercorea ) Mites ( Acarina spp. ) Ladybirds Stored Grain Insects (dead only) Pea Weevil ( Bruchus pisorum ) (dead only) Sitona Weevil ( Sitona spp ) Wood Bugs Tolerances apply to either Live or Dead whole Insects for most species, however n ote for Live Pea Weevil and Live Stored Grain Insects, a nil tolerance applies – refer to the definition of Stored Grain Insects. For all Insects , pieces are included in Other Foreign M aterial. Load A load is a bulk unit tendered for delivery. Maximum Residue Limits Maximum Residue Limits ( MRLs ) are the maximum amount of a chemical residue or its metabolite that is legally permitted on or in an agricultural commodity. The Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority (APVMA) sets MRLs. These MRLs are set at levels which are not likely to be exceeded if the agricultural or veterinary chemicals are used in accordance with approved label instructions and can be foun d on the ComLaw website at http://www.comlaw.gov.au/Details/F2014C00821 . Australian MRLs may differ significantly from those prescribed by foreign countries and the International Codex Alimentarius Commission. Consequently grain exporters must be aware of MRLs of importing countries and which countries accept Codex MRLs. Foreign country MRLs may be accessed directly from foreign government websites or the NRS grains database at http://www.daff.gov.au/agriculture - food/nrs/nrs - australian - and - overseas - mrl - database . Industry should always confirm the accuracy of these MRL listings through their own means. Moisture This is the amount of water present in the sample as determined by the appropriate analytic al method . N/A In these Standards means not applicable. That is, no minimum or maximum tolerance exists. The quality parameter may exist at unlimited levels in the sample.
5. GTA Wheat Trading Standards 201 4 /1 5 © Effective date: 1 August 201 4 Page 5 of 94 Dry Green or Sappy Dry G reen refers to green grains arising from harvesting of grain before it has matured. Dry Green grains are those whose surface is distinctively green. Dry green grains are usually dry and hard. Sappy grains are those that have been harvested before maturity. Sappy grains are generally soft when pressed. They may or may not be green. Any level of sappiness is class ifi ed as defective. This definition is to be read in conjunction with the photo in the Visual Recognition Standards Guide which depicts the minimum affected standard for a grain to be classified as Dry Green or Sap py. Durum Durum includes grains of the species Triticum durum . Vitreous Vitreous in the context of durum includes grains of a uniform colour which are bright and semi translucent in appearance and which exhibit no trace of mottling. Frost Damaged gra ins, Dry Green grains , grains of other cereals and grains of the species Triticum aestivum are also not considered to be vitreous grain for the purposes of this definition. Grains that display any signs of sprouting are not automatically classified as non vitreous. Instead, these grains are classified depending on their appearance. Mottled Mottled grains in the context of durum are those that contain opaque, starchy areas within an otherwise vitreous grain. Mottled areas are normally of a dull yellow appearance and are easily identified visually against the amber coloured background of the otherwise vitreous grain. Non Vitreous Non vitreous grains in the context of durum include M ottled grains, F rost Damaged grains, D ry G reen grains, grains of other cereals and grains of the species Triticum aestivum . Grains are assessed as non vitreous irrespective of the size of any mottled area that may be present. Grains that are entirely starchy and opaque are non vitreous. Bleached Bleached in the context of durum are those grains that have become dull and pale, or “washed out in appearance ” as a result of pre harvest weather damage. These grains may appear opaque and therefore non vitreous however this may be purely an external ef fect. Bleached grains may still be classified as vitreous providing there is no evidence of mottling. Earcockle Earcockles are darkened seed - like nematode galls. These galls displace kernels in diseased heads and are caused by infection from the nematode Anguina tritici . The tolerance applies to the number of galls in the sample. Earth Earth is defined as a clod of dirt, being 5mm or less in diameter. Ergot Ergot is a purplish black fungal body, which contaminates cereal and ryegrass kernels when they are infected by the fungus Claviceps purpurea .

GTA Wheat Trading Standards 201 4 /1 5 © Effective date: 1 August 201 4 Page 16 of 94 Variet y Master l ist This list designates the varietal group into which each variety may be assigned, for each of the four geographical crop growing zones of Australia. The varietal zones designated by geographical region are : Northern Classi fication Zone South Eastern Classificat i on Zone Southern Classification Zone Western Classification Zone The Variet y Master l ist appears in Section 4 of these Standards . Variet y Restrictions R estrictions apply to the varieties able to be received into each grade. Refer to the Variet y Master l ist for the maximum classification of each variety. Visual Re cognition Standards Guide The Visual Recognition Standards Guide (VR S G) for Wheat contains a range of photogra phs and illustrations to supplement the wheat Standards as outlined in this booklet. The most recent VR S G for wheat was released in August 2014 . The Defect ive Grain definitions listed in this Standards Booklet are to be read in conjunction with the images displayed in the VRSG . The images in that document display the minimum and/or maximum coverage and attributes of the Defective Grain types as defined in these S tandards. Wheat Wheat includes grains of the spe cies Triticum aestivum (bread wheat) , Triticum tauschii (soft wheat) and Triticum durum (durum) . White Grain Disorder/Head Scab /Flaked Grain White Grain Disorder is caused by the fungus Botryosphaeria spp. Head Scab is caused by the fungus Gibberella zeae (also called Fusarium graminearum ). Both are classified under the heading “ Stained ” . These two quality parameters are combined into the one category as they are difficult to distinguish. Grains appear white to light grey but may also contain a pink discolouration. Grains are only to be classified as “White Grain Disorder/Head Scab” if the discolouration is over more than approximately 50% of the seed coat surface . If the discolouration is less than approximately 50% of the seed coat surface , grains m ay be classified as Stained. This defect may cause grain to appear as “flaky”. For a grain to be classified as ‘flaky’ within this definition, it must also be affected by White Grain Disorder. If a grain is ‘flaky’ but not classified as White Grain Disor der, it is to be considered as a sound grain . This definition is to be read in conjunction with the photo in the Visual Recognition Standards Guide which depicts the minimum affected standard for a grain to be classified as White Grain Disorder / Head Scab / Flaked Grain .

Moisture can th en be read off for each sample in turn. Read the samples in the dishes consecutively recording results in the relevant worksheet. NOTE: When switching the oven on make sure that the Brabender oven is level (use bubble level). All results are a direct reading of % w/w water . The minimum heating time must be adhered to (1 hour) but heating over the hour will not affect the results (up to 2 h ou rs). If only a few grams of sample are available see the manufacturers hand book for the technique to be adopted. The w eight of Aluminium dishes is to be checked at 6 monthly intervals to ensure they are within 11.500 +/ - 0.005g. If they are underweight they are to be discarded and replacements purchased . D o not add weight to the dish i.e. solder etc as this will breakdown over time or fall off. If they are overweight they may be cleaned with warm water and neutral detergent . U nder no circumstances use abrasive or corrosive chemical s as this will lead to th e dish being underweight. 5.4.6 References Moisture – Air Oven Methods – AACC Method 44 - 15A NMI M 8 Pattern Approval Specifications for Protein Measuring Instruments for Grain NMI V10 Uniform Test Procedures for the Verification, Certification and In Service Inspection of Protein Instruments for Grain

Instruments of m agnification can be used to assist the determination of the level of sprouted grains present in the sample . Nil tolerance applies If sprouted grains are detected and a nil tolerance applies the load can only be accepted into Feed segregations. Nil tolerance does not apply or alternative procedure is used If sprouted grains are detected, a small representative sub sample should be drawn from across the top of the screen, and placed on the open 300 grain tray. Surplus grain should be removed from the tray, ensuring all 300 holes are filled. The lid should then be slid shut, inverted, and the 300 grains emptied onto the bottom inspection tray. Examine the 300 grains. If 1% or more sprouted grains are present (more than 3 grains per 300) it is recommend ed to conduct a Falling Number test on that load and classify accordingly. If load by load testing is not conducted, refer to Running Sample Assessment below. If less than 1% sprouted grain is found (less than 3 grains per 300) the Falling Number test is optional, providing appropriate procedures are employed by the Receival Agent to ensure that the Falling Number result on the running samples compiled for the storage unit into which the loads are being delivered is maintained at or above the limits specif ied for the grade being received (see Running Sample Assessment below). Running Sample Assessment “Running Sample Assessment” can be adopted where the Receival Agent is unable to apply the Receival Standard Procedure through lack of sufficient Falling Nu mber units or chooses not to apply the Receival Standard procedure. It is recommended that this procedure occur either on site or as close as possible to the receival site, in order to minimise the time delay in the site receiving the Falling Number resul ts and to minimise the risk of receival of out of specification grain. Upon detection of sprouted grain in a delivery, an initial visual sprouting limit must be set for that grade. The tolerance for sprouted grains for the first day wheat is delivered a fter a rain event is to be set by the Receival Agent at a conservative level to protect the integrity of the stack. A suggestion is to set this visual tolerance based on the stack sample or individual grower samples. Following the setting of a visually spr outed grain limit, running samples are to be collected by placing a sub - sample of each load into a bucket representing deliveries into the particular grade. The sample is to be closed off once an appropriate tonnage has been delivered into the grade/stack . Suggested tonnage is 500 tonnes. The running samples are to be either assessed on site (preferred) or forwarded to a close by location for Falling Number analysis as often as possible, with a minimum of one sample per day forwarded for Falling Number ana lysis (i.e., even if less than the required tonnage is delivered into the grade). All Falling Number analyses on running samples are to be reported back to the receival site(s) as soon as possible, with a recommended maximum of 4 hours from sample collect ion. Based on the Falling Number result of the running sample, the visually sprouted grain tolerance may be altered on a grain stack basis. Note that if the running sample Falling Number result is below the minimum Receival

The principle involves visual identification and removal of mottled grains by hand picking from a 300 grain sample. Every grain is carefully examined on all sides before a v itreous kernel assessment is made. Bleached grains are cut with a scalpel or Farinator in order to facilitate their classification. The non vitreous grains are counted and the vitreous grain percentage then calculated . 5.16.2 Scope This method is applicable to all durum wheat . 5.16.3 Apparatus Sample divider Agtator and 2.00mm wheat screen Seed counter Sample inspection tray Tweezers Farinator Scalpel 5.16.4 Reagents Not applicable . 5.16.5 Method Sample to be “as is”. Screen the sample over a 2.00mm wheat screen using the approved method of determining Unmillable Material for Wheat. Count out 300 grains obtained from the top of the screen after completion of the screening process using a grain counter. A 300 grain tray or hand counting can also be used. Pour the 300 g rain sample into the sample inspection tray . With the aid of tweezers (if required), visually examine the grain, turning each grain from side to side so that its entire surface may be observed. Separate the grains according to whether they are assessed a s vitreous, non vitreous or bleached. Count the non vitreous grains. Bleached grains may be difficult to ascertain if they are vitreous or not. These may be cut with a scalpel or Farinator (preferred) then classified as vitreous or non vitreous.

For Defective grains with tolerances above zero, assessment is made on the half litre sample on grain remaining above the 2.00 mm scree n after the Unmillable Material assessment has been conducted. For nil tolerance defects, the tolerance (rejection of the load ) can apply if the defect is detected at any stage of the delivery or testing process, including in the truckload before sampling, in the probe sample, in the half litre sample or during discharge into the receival hopper after assessment. Following sieving , the grain remaining on t he top screen should be exami ned under conditions of good lighting for a period of at least 30 seconds but no more than 60 seconds. If defective grains are found, the level of defect shall be determined using a 300 grain tray, except for Field Fungi Affected and Heat Damaged, Bin Burn t, Storage Mould which shall be determined on the full half litre sample. Instruments of magnification may be used to assist the determination of the level of visually defective grains present in the sample . If defective grains which have a tolerance based on % in a 300 grain sample are detected, a small sub sample should be drawn from across the top of the screen, and placed on the open 300 grain tray. Surplus grain should be removed from the tray, ensuring all 300 holes are fil led . The lid should then be slid shut, inverted, and the 300 grains emptied onto the bottom inspection tray. The assessment for Field Fungi and Heat Damaged, Bin Burnt, Storage Mould grains shall be conducted on the entire half litre sample. Each grai n should be examined to determine if it is classified as defective. An individual kernel may only have one defect, being the defect type with the tightest tolerance in the standard. The defective grains percentage can be assessed with the assistance of the GTA Approved photographic standards (Visual Recognition Standards Guide) or Approved objective measurement instruments where appropriate . Report all applicable results to the nearest 0.1% or nearest number per half litre whichev er is applicable . 5.13.6 References Grain Quality Visual Recognition Standards – Australian Grains Centre, Co - operative Bulk Handling Ltd, October 2004.

It includes, but is not limited to the following: Fine Material This refers to material such as dust and soil (<0.06 mm in diameter ) and minerals. Snail S hell and Stored Grain I nsects This includes pieces of Snail S hell (less than half an entire shell) , pieces of Stored Grain Insects (not whole) and pieces of Inse cts Large and Small . Other This includes pieces of Sticks that are smaller than the dimensions specified under Objectionable Material, and other non - vegetative material. Over - Dried Damaged This refers to defective grains caused by overheating during artificial drying. It can be detected where grain is hot, exhibits an unusual odour, exhibits significant sprouting (greater than 10%) or other evidence of weather damage but no corresponding reduction in Falling Number has occurred. Loads affected in thi s way should only be classified as the maximum grade of Feed. This definition includes a maximum temperature of grain tendered for delivery of 50 O C for all Grades including Feed. Pea Weevil Pea Weevil refers to all life stages of insects of the species B ruchus pisorum . Note that a separate tolerance applies to Live and Dead Pea Weevils : Live A nil tolerance applies to all live Pea Weevils Dead Dead Pea Weevil are included in the definition for Insects – Large Pieces of Pea Weevils are classified as Other Foreign Material As Pea Weevils are commonly found inside field pea seeds, it is recommended that a number of field peas present in a load of grain should be broken and assessed for the presence of this insect . Pickling Compounds or Artificial Colouring Pickling C ompounds are those chemicals added to grain as a seed treatment or as a seed dressing prior to sowing . This includes grains that may be affected by marker dye commonly used during crop spraying opera tions that has stained the wheat. They are usually associated with a colouring agent. Grains contaminated in this way may be identified by an unnatural surface colour and/or a colour that rubs off. Any grains that are artificially coloured regardless of intensity are defective. Pink Stained This is a grain defect arising from infection by fungal species which give the seed coat a distinct pink discolouration. This defect is included in the toleran ce for “Stained” . Grains that are pink but also contain a white to light grey fungal like discolouration over more than approximately 50% of the seed coat surface are to be classified as “ White G rain Disorder/Head Scab /Flaked Grain ”.

This means that the highest grade classification available to a variety depends on the region in which it is delivered and the segregati on being available at the point of delivery . Driver declares the variety (s) in the load tendered for delivery . It is recommended that the grower sign a Declaration Form and provide this to the driver for provision to the Receival Agent. This Declaration F orm should at a minimum contain the grower details and the variety(s) of the load. If the declared varietal composition or paddock where the grain was grown is different for each unit tendered for delivery, or more than one variety is commingled in each delivery unit, then a separate assessment of each unit must be conducted. Note that depending on the varietal declaration and the procedures of the Receival Agent, a sample of the load may be taken and sent to a laboratory for assessment of the variety wi thin the sample. In this instance sample is to be “as is”. Report the variety as per the following procedure using the applicable code as defined by the Receival Agent. Load is Declared as One Variety Only Where the load is declared as being of the one variety only, review the applicable maximum grade classification of that variety as per the Variet y Master l ist. Based on the quality results, Grade the load and record the declared variety. Load is Declared as Multiple Varieties of the Same Grade Classification Status Where the load is declared as being of more than the one variety, determine the different varieties contained in the load and for each, review the applicable maximum grade classification as per the Variet y Master l ist. Based on the quality results, Grade the load and record the variety with the greatest percentage in the load.

A primary sample is an individual probed sample taken from the lot presented for sampling A composite sample is the combined primary samples taken from the lot to be sampled, and is r epresentative of the enti re lot A sub sample is the sample taken from the mixed composite sample for the purposes of conducting quality tests , and is representative of the entire lot 5.2.2 Scope Wheat is traded on the basis of quality tests conducted on lots of wheat presented for sale or delivery to end users. Obtaining representative samples is critical to ensuring test results reflect the true quality of these lots. This procedure is applicable to all cereal grains, pulses and oilseeds. 5.2.3 Apparatus Manual sampling probe (double tube compartment probe, one inside the other, equipped with spiralled ports that open sequentially from bottom to top). Vacuum or pneumatic probe (an alternative to the manual sampling probe and consisting of a hand held or remotely control led probe which retrieves grain through the use of a vacuum or other air movement system). Mixing bucket (including other associated equipment such as mini - auger suitable for mixing sample, optional). Sample dividing apparatus (optional) . 5.2.4 Reagents Not Applicable . 5.2.5 Procedure Sample Collection guidelines for collecting a representative sample The surface of the grain should be fully exposed prior to sampling to allow for effective visual inspection. At this point, the load should be scanned for any defects or contaminants. The probe to be used should be of a sufficient length in order to obtain a sample from as close as possible to the bottom of truck.
84. GTA Wheat Trading Standards 201 4 /1 5 © Effective date: 1 August 201 4 Page 84 of 94 Small Foreign Seeds (SFS) are assessed in the bottom tray (catchpan). These may nee d to be physically removed from all non - SFS material in the bottom tray. Alternatively, to assist in separating SFS from non - SFS material in the bottom tray, a mesh screen may be used. Place the sample over the mesh screen over a white tray and gentl y shak e. SFS tend to remain on top of the mesh screen. Physical hand separation of SFS may still be required using this method. Note that a ny seed pods detected must not be opened . Whole pods or part thereof are classified as Unmillable Material Above the Scree n unless tolerances are specified in Foreign Seeds . Where depicted, other contaminants should be assessed using the GTA Approved photographic standards. Where reference material is not available, other contaminants should be assessed by reference to the Definitions of those parameters. For assessment of P ickling C ompounds , C hemicals not A pproved for Wheat or Chemicals in Excess of the MRL , it is recommen ded that all deliveries are accompanied by a signed declaration referring to its chemical status. Where the receiving agent believes that the visual appearance and/or odour of grain suggests that it has been treated with a non approved chemical, it is reco mmended the grain is not received until the representative “as received” sample has been tested by an approved independent laboratory and the presence or absence of non approved chemicals ascertained. Report results as follows: Count per half litre – nearest whole number Length in cm per half litre – nearest 0.1cm Percentage by wt in half litre – nearest 0.1% Weight in grams in 2.5 litres – nearest 0.1g Percentage by count in 300 grains – nearest 0.1% Percentage by count in a half litre – nea rest 1% 5.15.6 References Grain Quality Visual Recognition Standards – Australian Grains Centre, Co - operative Bulk Handling Ltd, October 2004.

Bread Wh eat This refers to those wheats of bread making varieties ( Triticum aestivum ) which contaminate durum deliveries, and for which a specific tolerance applies. Bread wheat can be visually distinguished from durum by the fine hairs on the brush end which are usually only associated with bread wheat varieties. Cereals In the context of these Standards, cereals refer to wheat, barley, oats, cereal rye, triticale, sorghum, maize and rice. Cereal Smuts Cereal Smuts include all smuts on all cereal grains. This includes but is not limited to: Ball Smut Are those infected by the spores of the fungus Tilletia caries . They have the appearance of pale, plump, slightly oversized grains. These grains are easily crushed between the fingers and contain a mass of blac k powder (spores) with a distinctive rotten egg smell. This may also be called Stinking Smut or Bunt. Covered Smut Covered smut is caused by various fungi of the Ustilago spp. Loose Smut Loose smut is the result of the fungus Ustilago tritici developin g in the head during the growing phase. The tolerance applies to the number of blackened pieces of backbone in the sample. Chemicals not Approved for Wheat Refers to the following : Chemicals used on the growing crop in the State or Territory where the wheat was grow n in contravention of the label Chemicals used on stored whea t in contravention of the label Chemicals not registered for use on wheat Wheat containing any artificial colouring, pickling compound or marker dye commonly used during crop sprayi ng operations that ha s stained the wheat

Tolerances are defined in terms of overall length in cm when pieces found in the sample are aligned end on end . Cereal Ergot Cereal ergot is Claviceps purpurea infection of any cereal kernels. Tolerances are defined in terms of the total number of pieces or whole affected kernels of any cereal found in the sample. Falling Number Falling Number is a grain quality test wh ich measures the degree of weather damage in wheat and is based on the unique ability of alpha amylase (an enzyme released during seed germination) to liquefy a starch gel. Strength of the enzyme is measured by Falling Number defined as the time in seconds required to stir plus the time it takes to allow the stirrer to fall a measured distance through a hot aqueous flour or meal gel undergoing liquefaction. The Falling Number test is an alternative to visual assessment for sprouted grains, and always overr ides the visual grain assessment. Where sprouted grain is detected, it is recommended that load by load testing using the Falling Number unit occur. Field Fungi Field F ungi refers to individual kernels where more than half the seed coat is discoloured . The visible discolouration of affected grains can vary from dark grey , b rown to black in colour. Grains that are approximately 50 percent or less discoloured are to be classified as Stained. Grains that are soft (and not classified as Sappy) and/or emit a mouldy odour are to be classified as Rotted. This definition is to be read in conjunction with the photo in the Visual Recognition Standards Guide which depicts the minimum affected standard for a grain to be classified as Field Fungi. Foreign Seeds F oreign S eeds are defined as seeds of any plant, other than the species of crop being tendered for delivery. Foreign S eeds are classified into two broad groups; those with specific tolerances listed in the Standards , and those without. The latter are termed “ S mall F oreign S eeds” . Seeds with specifi c tolerances have been categorised into several groups. These are : Type 1 Colocynth (Citrullus colocynthis) Double Gees / Spiny Emex / Three Cornered Jack (Emex australis ) Jute (Corchorus olitorius ) Long Head Poppy (Papaver dubium ) Mexican Poppy (Argemone mexicana ) Opium Poppy (Papaver somniferum ) Poppy (Field) (Papaver rhoeas) Poppy (Horned) (Glaucium flavum) Wild Poppy (Papaver hybridum) Parthenium Weed (Parthenium hysterophorus ) New Zealand Spinach (Tet ragonia tetragonoides)

If presenting the sample to the instrument in a pellet form, adjustments may be required to burn temperatures, times and blanks to compensate for the absence of a sample capsule. Blank and standard control/check samples should be repeated periodically ( as a guide every 10 samples) during each analytical run to monitor any drift. Standard drift c orrections and recalculation of samples should be made after analysis if the drift exceeds specification. Calculation of nitrogen content is usually performed automatically by the instrument data processing system or associated software. Results should b e expressed as percent (5) nitrogen to two decimal places. For conversion to protein content “as is” multiply wheat nitrogen by 5.7 % . Convert protein content to an 11% moisture basis for wheat for the nitrogen/protein values where necessary. Report result to the nearest 0.1%.

A larger RSD indicates the need for a finer gr ind or a larger analytical test weight, assuming that the instrument has been properly set up. For each batch the accuracy of the system is demonstrated by making ten successive determinations of nitrogen in nicotinic acid or tryptophan (different materi als from calibration standard). Means of determinations must be ≤ ± 0.15 of respective theoretical values with standard deviation ≤ 0.15. Failure to achieve these values indicates the need for recalibration or optimisation of instrument settings. Accuracy checks should be carried out (1) On instrument installation and reinstallation following repairs and service; (2) When a new batch of working reference material is used; (3) After experiencing problems in instrument set up. 5.6.6 References Crude Protein Re ference Method - AACC Method 46 - 30

GTA Wheat Trading Standards 201 4 /1 5 © Effective date: 1 August 201 4 Page 44 of 94 SECTION 4 WHEAT VARIET Y CLASSIFICATION Wheat variety classification is the responsibility of Wheat Quality Australia Limited (WQA). Wheat Quality Australia Limited is an independent not for profit company relying on the support and involvement of all sectors of the value chain. It was established by Grains Research and Development Corporation (GRDC) and Grain Trade Australia Limited (GTA) to be responsible for wheat variety classification and related activities from 1 January 2011. Wheat Quality Australia captures input from all sectors of the wheat value chain to design and deliver wheat variety classification in Australia. The approach includes participants from al l segments in the value chain to ensure the classification system is appropriate and relevant at every point. Wheat classification is the categorisation of a wheat variety into a Class based on processing and end product quality and determines the highest Grade that a variety can be accepted into at delivery. The Classification System aims to deliver grain of consistent physical quality, processing performance and end - product quality to customers and end - users. The WQA Wheat Variety Master List (Masterli st) provided in this document details all of the varieties acceptable for delivery and their individual classifications or Classes by zone. While the Masterlist is updated several times each year as new varieties are released or existing varieties are revi ewed, the draft version is published in August 2014 and the final version for the 2014 / 15 season is published by the 1 st September 2014 . For any questions relating to the Classification process or the WQA Wheat Variet y Masterlist please go to the Wheat Quality Australia website – www.wheatquality.com.au . Bin Cascade Rules : The following Table contains a list of all of the Classes available for classification#. These Classe s determine the maximum Bin Grade into which a variety may be received. The Table includes the other, lower Bin Grades into which the variety may also be received – the Bin Grade cascade.
