In terms of importing, presumably there's a limit to what UK ports could handle per year.

Of course, but if the price is right they will have boats in one after another if the trucks can take it away fast enough. If they aren't hauling grain from UK farms they will be hauling it from the ports instead. The truck drivers would love that - loaded in 3 bucketfuls of a big loading shovel, good road network and no 4" auger fill ups from a snotty farmer who wanted to be out shooting that day...
you can’t import for free - it costs to move and is very exchange rate sensitive
they will of course import but if you look at other parts of the world we are not exactly heading for global excess as far as i read things this season
Buy the rumour sell the fact.What are you reading, Clive? I know this is a month old but USDA haven't said anything otherwise.

Here's the graph just for wheat, suggesting a building of wheat stocks at the end of the coming marketing year, again. Stocks to use ratio of 38% does not create volatility. STU of less then 20% does, depending on maize (STU 24%).

Yes, definitely roots taking moistureDo you think that the tree roots are sucking the moisture up? This is why I have field margins. Less shade and competition for resources.
you believe anything g the USDA say ? usa weather has been less than great this season - i was there at planting time and most of the mid west was under water
eastern europe hasn’t been great (drought) and a lot of northern europe suffered the same wet autumn that we did in the uk
The market follows the USDA as that is their most reliable information some farmers some of the time can be aheadThe markets move with the USDA reports, yet the trade love to rubbish them. Their agenda is not to spook the market, so big news is released slowly. They didn't paint the same picture of the US maize crop that you did 12 months ago and they were right. It wasn't as bad as you (and many of us) thought.
Where are you?What are folk being bid for feed wheat harvest movement? I was offered £164 ex Farm for 90t this morning. That’s a long way from the prices discussed here but will the feed guys pay more with maize and barley available?
Wiltshire m4Where are you?
They heard that @Clive is waiting for £250 and are trying his nerve, they allways say more sold on a falling trade.Nov 19 down £3 today , wtf
