I have just been working out today with all the winter wheat I have this year, group 1 and group 2, I could average £200t as all up to full spec near enough.
Just some of the later harvested Siskin with lower hadbergs but proteins and bushel weight good.
Not to be sneezed at with a quite reasonable tonnage and brexit looming?

So what are you waiting for? It's an amazing price!

Anyone hazard a guess where feed barley will go price wise.... everybody thought it would sink down to £100 as harvest progressed up here (north of Scotland) but it’s actually firmed and increased on pre harvest levels. Have a bit I will need to sell at some point but can store into next year if I thought the price would go in the right direction.

I'm putting my neck on the block!

£150/t by Christmas. If wheats going to be £200/t it's not completely bonkers.

It's not tight enough yet. This last good week has seen most crops cleanup up round here, so expect too much supply for a bit. Then Brexit. I'd love £150 but can't see it before Xmas.

Been offered £130/t for feed barley October uplift. I'll wait till they've stopped robbing the farmers wanting courts emptied to get cattle inside.

If a merchant has agreed to lift 400 tons in September, but by the end of the month they've only cleared 300 tons, does that put them in default and allow me to resell at the current market price?

You know, theoretically speaking....

A few years ago I had same situation- rang them up after the month had passed Which they were meant to collect it and told them it was no longer available as it wasnt collected one agreed month. They didn’t moan . And I sold it on for a better price.

Yeah but it's taking the michael when you've bought it at under the current market rate to expect the farmer to hold it for you? They could roll thousands of tons into October like that and make serious money?

Depends on your relationship with the merchant, whether you have refused to load at any time and whether you have reminded them. At the minimum I’d want paying as if collected in correct month and £1/t. If they didn’t respond to being nice I’d flog it elsewhere....
