When straw hangs about with wet weather etc and cultivations and seeding held up they soon wished they chopped it too !
yesIF buyers are welching left, right and centre, will even more straw than normal be chopped next year? If I was a big arable farmer that had sold straw in the swath for the first time in years, then the buyer/dealer backed out and left me with a soggy swath, i’d Likely weld the chopper to the back of the combine to stop me being tempted again.
Does nobody stand by their word any more?
Theres plenty of time, dont panic. if the straw is baled and not needed, it will be used next yr. If its chopped, and then its needed, the job is fecked.When straw hangs about with wet weather etc and cultivations and seeding held up they soon wished they chopped it too !
Idiots !Ive heard of deals been done on straw early, mid heat wave at big prices, prices have now dropped, deals not stood by, unhappy farmers!
Think the time as come for a 5 year fixed price .job is becoming a total joke . For sure some who have baled this time will never bale again in their lifetimeIF buyers are welching left, right and centre, will even more straw than normal be chopped next year?

Straw and the weather....the 2 most widely talked about subjects in farming
Umm think you’ll find once again you’re talking twaddle.Hmm...well....there we go. Producing straw ain't that easy. Some on here ( and FB for that matter ) think straw is made by Tescos in a factory just outside Milton Keynes..........
And which bull is best when we all know deep down its the middle oneAnd which pick-up of course and don’t forget how dangerous all Fendt tractors are or how only lexions catch fire !
£52 last I heard into Suttonwhat is the price powerstations pay for straw, or where do you find this out? any one know?
