Strange
There seemed to be plenty of trucks willing to move
cheap corn off the boats last year.

One of my haulier friends is massively critical of the grain trade. According to him they squeeze the job until only the busy fools are carrying grain one minute only to wonder where all the lorries are the next. I reassure him it’s nothing personal, the decisions are made in the USA by a robot.

When a farmer will sell a parcel of grain away for 50p yes the job is squeezed from top to bottom, the issue this year as previously discussed the trips to the ports especially from the midlands might only get 1 load in a day, however a domestic run might get 3 loads per day.

Hugh ammount less lorries on the road for a myriad of reasons, this is the first biggish harvest for a while being one....

Only reporting the views of my friend. Incidentally he’s still in business.

rain again here so no drilling and the forecast does not give the weeks dry weather needed to drill any more
2020 harvest is now being compromised big time
getting a bit tired of pictures of very light soils being drilled
prices for 2020 grain look cheap
buy 2020 grain sell 2019 and harvest the spread this takes out the Brexit and currency risk

I fell out with one of the big merchants for daring to argue over £6/t for feed wheat. They used to have 80% of our harvest, not spoken to the trader since (3mnths) and will not sell to them again on principal for the way I was spoken to after telling him he was £6 out on the days price.

Understandable, that's crazy.

If you get good service from your regular guy, 50p/t is neither here nor there but £6 is plenty of wonga!

Where now for grain prices? A sharp rise in the £ for the announcement of the EU deal, then a sharper drop when the DUP said they wouldn't be supporting it.

[Green oak]

So much for holding on to the rape.

 

[Jo28]

Dropped about £20 this week? Thought it was in short supply? Is it all strength of the £?

Strength of GBP and sheer amount of imports coming into the EU and also the UK
