Sold a load of new feed wheat and a load of new feed barley for harvest movement on Wednesday this week, 178 and 158. Not bothering with store expansion as harvest potential looks low here this year but still needed to move a couple of loads early to be sure of getting it all in. September would have been better but we struggled for space last year waiting a month.
Yet again my spring barley is looking a lot a better than my mauled in winter wheat and will leave a higher margin. Holding now till after harvest unless the outlook changes radically.
Everything needs warmth and sunshine, including me.

As long as maize stays up in price until end of July
then early cut winter barley should command
a premium price as It now looks like there's going to
be no carry over.

It's a big country, some crops are looking very good down in the southwest would you rather people lied about their own crops when asked?

Not at all but crops aren’t looking great in most of The country , pleased if they do look good in the sw as they had a rough time last year

That's just it though ,we're not a big enough country to
be much of a market mover on world grain prices.
If cheap maize hadn't been flooding in from abroad then
domestic wheat prices would have been much higher.

We need to ensure that imported crop with lower standards than UK wheat are appropriately discounted.

Surely everyone reads the fw / USDA with appropriate scepticism?

I farm cattle and arable and finish everything on home grown ration, sell the rest, some of the livestock / dairy farmers throw a right tizzy at the sight of foreign meat on the shelf but will happily buy an lorry of imported soya or maize a month with out a though of its origin. (sorry of topic), but to balance, sold 6 loads of wheat x farm on Thursday for £200. Devon.

sold last load OSR today £442 ex farm june, with bonus should come close to £500.

Should of held for one more month OSR now £500 ex farm june plus bonus.

jd6420s · May 18, 2021

If it helps there can't be that many people out there with any left to sell at that price. You have probably done better than most at £442 a tonne.

Sold a load of feed barley today. Essex £175Pt. for end of the week.

robbie · May 18, 2021

I've got a bit of barley and wheat left (2 lorry loads of each) I want to get the store emptied and cleaned out but how high is it going to go and how long do I wait?????

yellow belly · May 18, 2021

1 load Barley for June today 185
by July there will be very little left for any carry over
if 20 July to 10 august is wet or June is cool and dull then any one with grain will be able to call the price

any sensible consumer should have got their need sorted before now there was plenty of barley under 150 then and storage is not that expensive
