@4course I was only joking about it being our worst sale, not that I have topped it yet but may have to sell 1 load just to say I have in case it all goes horribly wrong

An actual large South American harvest.
Covid lockdown.
Market drivers and profit takers.
Covid rebound has inflated all prices, some timber doubled in price for a while, but has dropped substantially in the last month. Are we going to see a drop in demand.
Fundamentally supply and demand will base the price, and at the moment I do not see any bearish news, hence why I still have quite a bit to sell.
I ended up carrying three hundred tonnes (15% of production)of Grp1 from 2020 harvest as I was sure our Uk small harvest would never satisfy demand, to see it suddenly drop from our best sales of £218.50 in May. Luckily we have todays prices to sell into, but that was by pure luck, hence my apprehension about a never ending bull run.
I haven't sold anything for Harvest 2022

I think feed mills may be covered now until Christmas but not so much into new year
pathetic considering in will be mixed with imports with no farm level assurance requirements
Definitely tell them to do one ! - if ever there was a year to get millers to turn their back on this daftness this is it
how about all milling wheat growers stipulate no “Red Tractor sticker will NOT be applied“ as a condition of sake this year ……… what they going to do ?

No hope there would always be some independent farmers who would deliver with stickers aplied
farmers inthe uk would never cooperate
sad but probably true
maybe a peaceful protest ……. Everyone apply Red Tractor stickers upside down to show lack of support !

I suppose some extra might go into clamps yet?
Actually, a lot of maize that goes into AD plants then goes to make gas to go into the pipe line

I know of a farm nearby that was using 2018 stickers as they hadn’t been in red tractor since then. Still getting wheat tipped at local feed mill. Chap on intake not looking hard at it . Shows their system isn’t robust or worth the paper it’s written on .
They won’t stick!!
There Is a big difference to how each mill looks at the stickers. I had a load rejected as the sticker end date was October and the load was delivered in the first week of that month. I wasn’t un assured as the end date was 26th I think but the mill didn’t bother to check on the system.
