Late Friday morning, Hensall Co-op went on-line with their web page, offering surfers daily crop prices, comparative analysis of seed quality, maps, locations and historical information. There will also be weekly crop reports gathered from field repre sentatives across the province. There will be frequent updates, said Shannon Shrudka of the Co op. “It will not be static.” The idea for a website first came from the sales staff as customers with e-mail were looking for the opportunity to provide feedback. While the site, www.hdc.on.ca, is completely free to all visitors cur rently, the Co-op hopes to add restricted access information for members in the future.
