[QUOTE="Tarw Coch, post: 6857562, member: 1008"] You’ve got to be in it to win it though, no crops equals no income at some point so not ideal especially if trade should swing the other way, allthough I can quite understand that thought is needed about costs and expected yields after one of the wettest wi test known. I’m hearing a lot of talk of people going to plant maize for the digesters on land that didn’t go into winter crops, don’t know if they’ve got contracts or thought it through as not only does there seem a lot wanting to do it but the arable farms with digesters will likely have land of their own not drilled so they may well have all the maize they need. One things for sure, if enough people don’t plant , the produce they would have produced will be worth good money............,,but that doesn’t guarantee going ahead as usual will pay. [/QUOTE]
