    UK rapeseed, wheat area outlooks for 2023

    Looks like more rapeseed and the same on wheat. Presumably barley area will suffer in the spring? https://grainpricenews.com/2022/11/22/favourable-conditions-spur-growth-in-romanian-winter-crop-uk-rapeseed-sowings/

    BKT Tyres?

    We are after a new set of tyres and have been quoted the thick end of 14k for a set of Trelleborg and 8k for a set of BKT. But are they cheap for a reason? The tractor will do minimal road work and only does chaser bin and rolling, probably 400 hours a year and we are hoping a new set will last...

    Poll: Should NFU be lobbying AIC to change their rules?

    So, as we know, AIC have a set of rules which make market access for imported grains into our UK mills relatively easy. Yet the AIC rules make it much more difficult for UK produced grain to access these UK markets. Crazy isn't it. This is a straight forward issue, and one which is...
