    Buying a Used Cherry Picker.

    Mine has a dial for sensitivity across all the hydraulic functions. The main time it gets used for is the rotation - especially at height when you are getting close to gutters.

    Buying a Used Cherry Picker.

    Had electricians in years ago that used a nifty lift. Can't recommend as it swayed and wobbled all over the place. The biggest issue with it was getting it into buildings - required 3 of us to push it if it couldn't be reversed in with say Landrover etc. As I farm on my own, a man basket is out...

    Red Tractor and Grain passports - which grainstore?

    My RT inspection was just before Xmas last year and the inspector said he was recording the coordinates. Phone signal not the best and he was having difficulty I believe trying to sort out the technology.

    Red Tractor and Grain passports - which grainstore?

    I logged on to RT portal to see what I actually needed to do. After re setting password, as no idea when I was last on there, for me it has been straight forward enough. Created a passport with my pre printed address, RT logo and date when valid until and no post harvest pesticides pre ticked...

    The sales were for cash flow, invoices needing to be paid.

    Combinables Price Tracker

    Doing really well here in Pembs. Sold forward 4 loads of barley for Sept delivery, in the 171 to 180 range to an intermediary. They texted last night that all 4 loads would transfer to Oct delivery for one pound a ton as issues with mill intake. Screwed over yet again !

    Electricity tariffs/Prices

    yeah, I'd seen post 602. Have spoken to NFU energy services this afternoon. They have found a supplier to halve the standing charge but the unit rate is still 87p. The advice given is to tell SSE to do one and once tomorrow 's announcements have been made, the market should fall. The supply...

    RPI upwards only..... so doesn't drop if recession hits and RPI heads to negative territory.
