Unfortunately the money being paid for what we are producing isn't crazy yet.

Much rather have barley at £60/ t and cattle back to £3.50 dead and fert £90/T
If barley and fert fell to those prices i think beef would be £2.50 . Arable boys would all be under the doctor.

It’s not that long ago we were selling B&W bulls at £2.50 and good lims @ £3.00. Thought we were having a good do at that! Then corn started creeping up!

lamb price will creep back up after the earlies have gone through i recon , not so many creeping lambs like last year , too expensive to feed them all on present returns , so supply will tighten some when we get through may

yes £1if lucky .
Had first lambs in Ross this morning. 42.5kg. £133. Happy enough on the day. Trade generally a bit easier. Cull ewes were a touch back too but still good.

Just keep chugging along like we always do what will be will be
on another note… how’s your day going I hear you ask??Ripped the tow bar off my hilux last night, finished weighing lambs at 1am this morning using a mates transit van too cart them home for the night… then used the mrs Nissan X trail too take them too market, nearly died atleast 10 times on the journey, 20 ewes and 30
Lambs was a touch too much for her steering was optional…
Just as I pulled on the dock too unload I got a phone call off the police too say my sheep were running riot… followed by a very angry dairy farmer that the police had turned them into his silage fields which no look like they’ve been flat rolled
I f**king hate sheep Don’t worry,it’ll all look better tomorrow. That’s what I keep telling myselfJust keep chugging along like we always do what will be will be
