Think there is some confusion between litres, components and solids going on in the last few pages.
C16 is an interesting one. Admittedly, I haven't done the calculation for some time, but i used to find it rarely pays over sending a couple more litres and I've been on a manufacturing contact of one sort or another for a couple of decades.
Feed cost, maybe I'm getting miserable in my old age but some farmers are paid for that info and I begrudge dairyco giving it away. I wouldn't win the cheapest anyway ?.
Ticking along ok at the moment:
