I've been watching marketplace on twatbook for a slimline tank for diesel storage.
I managed to find 1 local for the right money, but when I checked the manufacturer's website, it said it wasnt suitable for refuelling use.

I've started working with a local farmer and we are planning on growing a trial crop of sunflowers down in Kent. We have 5 acres that we have dedicated to it this year.
We want to know the specifications...

What would the efficiency of a diesel generator be? We are on the edge of our 3 phase capacity and looking at a generator as temporary solution. If red is £1.00/ltr am i right that would be 10p/kw at 100% efficiency. What efficiency would a generator run at? 80%?
As the wheat prices seem almost completely dependant upon news about this right now which way does the crowd wisdom of TFF think things will go in the Ukraine ?
Without wishing to sound too much like Corporal Jones in Dads Army......
According to a reliable source, namely the fuel delivery driver with whom I wanted to order tractor diesel, there is no red diesel at all to be had from Stanlow in Cheshire. No doubt this is a temporary issue but...

Am I right in thinking the only point of entry could be fuel injection pump?
This extract lifted from an email received yesterday. I understood from Janet Hughes posts that there was no plan to link SFI with farm assurance. If I am correct then either Janet Hughes speak with forked tongue or there are parts of her team publishing stuff with contrary information.
