yes, many cases this year cutting for hay was better option than trying to make grain
even within NSW though, it is being transported quite long distances . . .

we baled a failed sorghum crop in July - effectively just sorghum straw - and sold it for $350 / t on farm ( plus freight on that )

Good price there Roy. I would say half of the price of most of the above would be freight. The lucerne price is surprising....I would expect that almost on farm.

yeah, there are some big distances involved . . .
we sold ours ( locally ) before they started cutting all those southern winter crops, so it was good timing
those prices were just sent to me today by a grain trader / broker

the main issue raised by that clothing label is why are they dressing a child ( or anyone for that matter ) in 100% polyester ?

Social media is already full of labour voters bitching like f**k! The amount of whining they do I’m genuinely surprised they’ve done so badly. Definitely a disproportionate whinge to vote ratio on that side of the political divide!

Perhaps because Corbin was as unpalatable as Shorten was here. Youd be annoyed as an independent like in Boris's seat to get 5 votes when bucket head of the raving loony party got over 250 and binhead got more than you as well

Well, Boris now had nobody to hide behind. What that will mean is anyone's guess.
We have until December next year to mitigate a brilliant long term trade deal with our biggest trading partner.
Interesting tines indeed!

Stuffed if I really know, economy I'm guessing - judging by the size. We're guilty of that, however - can't be too fussy with hand-me-down stuff...the main issue raised by that clothing label is why are they dressing a child ( or anyone for that matter ) in 100% polyester ?

No British government will scrap farm subsidies completely:
1. They would lose too much control
2. They don't have the balls

Precisely, if farmers are broke with it then they will soon be ex-farmers without it.
It'll just morph into some other schemes, grants, payments etc IMHO
because f**k trying to survive at £3/kg of beef folks have tractors to run

I read earlier this year that average Welsh farms owe 85% of their INCOME to subsidy. I couldn't believe it so looked at the official figures. It's true!Precisely, if farmers are broke with it then they will soon be ex-farmers without it.

Removal of subs would kill the Welsh economy and rural communities.

It makes you wonder what will happen when they phase out livestock farming in Wales.I read earlier this year that average Welsh farms owe 85% of their INCOME to subsidy. I couldn't believe it so looked at the official figures. It's true!
