grain store

With all of our grain going to CS and sheds being used for other purposes, does anyone have any good ideas for a tipping/loading site surface for grain. Concrete is obviously the ideal, but very expensive and this is really only needed for a few weeks of the year. I have seen stabilised concrete...

Ok so our landlord has just put up a new grain store/machinery shed, just waiting for roller door to be fitted. We currently grow grain to crimp and feed our own stock but with operating a mixed system we seam to achieve very pleasing organic yeilds. Is it worth becoming farm assured to sell...

Hi all, Just after your thoughts. Currently looking at changing our combine, farming 950ha with roughly 430ha in group 1 wheat looking to hit the highest premiums possible. Also growing spring linseed, borage, peas and beans. On the floor drying in every grain store, but no continuous flow...

For some reason I can't post the video if someone can please do. Go to about 48 mins in and there is a farmer called Angus from Yorkshire who Is not using fungicides but concentrating on plant health and nutrition. I find this very interesting as we did some on farm trials and saw very similar...

I'm looking to build a new grain store of circa 2000t. I have had Graham Heath put 5 buildings up for us in the last few years all of which have been ideal for their purpose from workshops to temporary stores to storage lets. I would be interested to know who others have used recently for a...

Batten down the hatches - looks like pretty rough weather due tomorrow! I'll be surprised (and grateful!) if I'm not sitting here this time tomorrow night without having some trees down and/or a storm damage insurance claim!

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 ?

We're finishing building our grain store here and now concentrating on the yard and drainage. The area between the stone bunker and the new building gets a lot of water running off which goes down the yard and gets everything wet. I need a solution to remove the water. Our pressure washer is...

Anyone watching ?

A neighbour with 1000 cattle is looking for a new loader to do the yard work, fill a diet feeder as quick as possible . He’s looking at a bobcat tl38.70hf. Anyone any experience of these loaders or other options .

New legislation will soon make them illegal. We have used them in grain sores to keep mice in check, we obviously can’t use poisoned bait in that situation, what is the situation with using baited traps? Would the bait be a problem? Is a trap where they drop into water legal?

Customer yesterday had a fail on his ACCS because his scrap heap was to untidy and has 28 days to sort it out or be suspended. It’s nowhere near the grain store 🤷🏻‍♂️ It’s getting silly now 🙄

Planning a new 80 foot span grain store which is 24 feet to the eaves. Is it going to be high enough to tip artics in? If I go up to 30 feet to the eaves steel work cost goes up considerably.

Nothing to do with poltics or unfaithful partners. I found a trio of dead rats in the barn, half grown & then loading some small bales, I saw another one same size but very much alive. It dived between two bales but its tail was visible, should I have grabbed it.

Has anybody had a trading standards inspection where the inspector has asked to see their assurance inspection report ?
