Let’s hope it’s still funny come the autumn, good news for all livestock producers though.

You think red meat would not follow suit ?
Cheap wheat =cheaper chicken which creates demand
destruction for dearer meats such as beef .
The beef price falls on lack of demand.
Farmers should be asking for better prices full stop
not playing one sector against another.

 

[yellow belly]

If prices go too low that planting over the next 6 months is reduced and fertiliser rates reduced 2023 harvest will not meet demand
If weather gets involved 2023 will see even higher prices than 2022

fw ha ha

Thats were I got the info about the turkeys not being able to resist eating the wheat!
Apparently fw are saying there will be a shortage of medium to small turkeys for christmas and most won't be able to fit in the oven!?

Tbf although its wrong russia is stealing grain at least somebody somewhere is getting supplied and will be one less customer later on.

Off topic I know, but I don't think I would be considering investing in next year's harvest if some twont was stealing this years out of my sheds with nothing I could do about it! I don't think they are anywhere close on the estimated tonnage left either.

The wheat price was run down prior to last year's harvest . What did they do in previous years ?

 

[chickens and wheat]

Cheaper wheat wont floor the chicken price in a rush.
Broiler farms still have soya, energy and other spiked running cost.

And dont start calling £260 wheat cheap

It is pretty cheap if 25% of the cost of it went on fertiliser

It's all relative. You wouldn't have to worry so much about these costs if you were adequately rewarded by the rest of the food chain.

Let's hope not. Don't feel like I'm coining it atm.
Felt better selling a bit of surplus wheat a month ago than the 20 odd fats I've sold since.

Take feed out and costs are still up massively for beef farmers but not much uplift in finished prices at all.

Every time I book cattle I say prices need to rise and get told "we're trying our best" but nothing yet and I dont think it's going to happen. I'll see it another year otherwise more arable or wild bird seed will look more attractive.

Most of this years harvest was grown with fert at under 300?

Really?

 

[Chuckie]

Really?

Yes. Next year will be a different story, especially with November 23 futures under 250

 

[jd2013]

Think you will find allot of people had not covered this years crops with fert until mid June onwards, Prices were climbing and we all hoped it might fall . generally I would say most of this years crops are grown with fertilizer around £450 mark upwards. Just go back to fert page around 350 and read everyone's remarks. Apart from Chae who was getting cheap fert delivered!

With machinery ,fuel and fertiliser where it is £260 t
for wheat is relatively low.It's the price of chicken in
the supermarkets which has been too cheap.

most of the chicken farmers around have free electric and heat paid for by the government anyway through so called renewable energy

Whats the current situation with the Canola crop?

View from room this am, of direct drilled crops emerging in middle distance is pretty typical of canola we saw driving 100 miles yesterday.

Useless said on the bbc this morning that 25 million tonnes are trapped in Ukrainian ports. Also said British army would help out with rail logistics. Too get in out! When questioned. What troops on the ground? He said no. WTAF is he about then.

That's a hell of a lot of sheds full of wheat

There’s no way that there’s 25 million tons stuck at the ports .
