Paying £330/t for bruised barley for finishers. 10k heap doesn't look very big and isn't going to last very long.

It’s frightening isn’t it…..dealing with some crazy lumps of cash now

Unfortunately the money being paid for what we are producing isn't crazy yet.

Much rather have barley at £60/ t and cattle back to £3.50 dead and fert £90/T

If barley and fert fell to those prices i think beef would be £2.50 . Arable boys would all be under the doctor.

It’s not that long ago we were selling B&W bulls at £2.50 and good lims @ £3.00. Thought we were having a good do at that! Then corn started creeping up!

lamb price will creep back up after the earlies have gone through i recon , not so many creeping lambs like last year , too expensive to feed them all on present returns , so supply will tighten some when we get through may

Had first lambs in Ross this morning. 42.5kg. £133. Happy enough on the day. Trade generally a bit easier. Cull ewes were a touch back too but still good.

Culls could drop £15 and still be a good price!

Just keep chugging along like we always do what will be will be on another note… how’s your day going I hear you ask??
Ripped the tow bar off my hilux last night, finished weighing lambs at 1am this morning using a mates transit van too cart them home for the night… then used the mrs Nissan X trail too take them too market, nearly died atleast 10 times on the journey, 20 ewes and 30
Lambs was a touch too much for her steering was optional…
Just as I pulled on the dock too unload I got a phone call off the police too say my sheep were running riot… followed by a very angry dairy farmer that the police had turned them into his silage fields which no look like they’ve been flat rolled I f**king hate sheep
