Upfront payment at Harvest time & then say when you want to sell it to collect the balance.
V fair setup & we've been members since it started in the early 80's
Grain all moved off Farm within a few days sometimes 24hrs.
Odd rare occasions later the same day.

GC? Used to haul for them, very efficient at getting grain off farm.

Feed Wheat in the North has been paying a premium of about £10/12 over feed Wheat in South.
We've been sending Wheat 170 miles north, getting a premium of about £7 more than if sent 10 miles down the road!!
Now Vivergo's closed now, will that all change?

Where are you? When Ensus is running it puts at least 2 to 3 pounds on the local price IMO.

Wiltshire/Glos border. The knock on effect of the demand from both Vivergo & Ensus spreads further South as the season progresses.
Last year, we came into the New Year at Wheat around £120. We finished the season in June/July at £150... solely due to the vacuum created by Vivergo & Ensus, which solely spread South as supplies dried up further North.
