Not sure of your area but I know of a couple of local farmers who don't have any bother getting rid of non assured rape via normal merchants. The merchants just say leave it with us and we can find a home, it gets tricky when it has to be gone in a certain time frame apparently.

Do what everybody else does and sell it to a friend who is assured and then split the ‘premium’ 50:50.
