[QUOTE="gone up the hill, post: 8156231, member: 1048"] £5 for beef is now not enough. £6.60 for lambs is not enough either. Beef needs to be £6 kilo and lambs £8 kilo + deadweight. ( just to standstill with 12 months ago ) Been told feed is going up yet another £35/40 ton any day now so on the back of recent rises that will mean since Jan it has gone up by £180/90 ton... just not feasible to feed it to either beef cattle or lambs at current prime prices. If the feed price jumps the above then it will make Fert look cheap even at £750 tonne! Store/stirk prices are being driven by a very late dose of grass fever but what the hell is going to happen come autumn when looking down the barrel at a very long winter of very high feed/ general input costs??
