Thanks. I have no regrets selling when I did. I get more hacked off with my location for selling grain. Hammered on transport! Been selling milling wheat for around the £150 mark where a lot of people have been getting that or more for feed! Though have a great location for other things so swings and roundabouts!

I would have thought Oxfordshire was pretty well placed from a transport point of view.
How far are you from Weetabix?

 

[Poncherello1976]

We are about as far away from a port as you can get. You may get Weetabix contracts in North Oxfordshire but in the south we are too far away. We are 70 miles from their mill and I think they say the take it from within 50 miles. All mills local to us used to supply most of their stuff to the pigs on the Chilterns/North Downs but the market dropped out of that and they closed. A couple of big firms have stores/mills in West Oxfordshire. Our milling wheat has gone to Heygates and Whitworth Bros in Wellingbrough.
As I say swings and roundabouts. We have Thame market virtually on our door step and that is good for selling AAx stores. Don't get stung for the haulage either as I do it myself!

 

[chaffcutter]

Can’t like that but surprised you are so far from mills and ports!

Well with the UK at import parity I don't think you need to worry about being close to ports.....

Does anyone know how much physical grain is being sold into this price increase? Just wondered if farmers were holding off selling

 

[lloyd]

Sold a load of feed wheat £163 Dec
How does that compare?

Just put some actual prices back on thread, sold barley for June collection at £157, some feed wheat just loaded yesterday sold last month £162

 

[Sprog]

Sold the last of this years feed wheat yesterday for June at £171. Sold about 15% of new crop for harvest movement at £150 a while ago. Offered £157 for September this morning.

Personally I'm not. Won't be much to sell if it stays dry.

 

[pellow]

I've sold around 1/3, this price rise is bringing out the gambler

the North/South price difference is interesting, and annoying if you are in the South!

 

[Renaultman]

I've done a bit for Dec at £163.00 and May at £170.00 I have more committed than I would really like but my gut feeling is very nervous. If I'm wrong I will do a fair bit of spot at harvest. If I'm right at least I have a fair bit of cover.

There are some great looking winter crops around here, but I thought that in 2012.
