A farm marketing firm in Grey Bruce is alleged to have bilked farmers out of nearly a million dollars.
Two people connected with Grey Bruce Beef Marketing and All County Feed and Grains have each been charged with fraud.
Grey County OPP allege farmers were not paid for product sold to abattoirs and feed companies through the two local firms last year.
Constable Steve Starr says they started looking into the allegations back in January after a complaint from a group of farmers.
Police allege the total amount of the 13 alleged frauds is in excess of 750 thousand dollars.
The victims are mostly beef producers from Bruce, Grey and Wellington Counties.
A feed supply company in Waterloo Region is also listed as a victim.
38 year old Mark Kuglin of Meaford and 57 year old Darryl Williams of Chatsworth have both been charged with 13 counts of fraud over 5 thousand dollars.
Both men are listed as officers with the incorporated company.
Starr says they don’t anticipate laying any further charges but they would like to speak with any other victims.
