Well, I havent got any contracts signed, so if you want to pay me closer to £400/t for some linseed next year you need to send me a PM. Produce of acreage. No cap load charges. Can store into the new year. Would need to buy some new seed as all we have from this year is this nasty NuLin yellow stuff.

We have done a bit recently on min max contracts for yellow and brown, no link to the osr market
Personally I like it linked to osr, as it tracks oil and is a different dynamic to most crops. At the mo my contract of 50% at £350 and 50% at £65 over osr looks good I think!

When you see the UK prices and Black sea prices...i think we in Australia are having our pants taken down this year....
I am also surprised the malsters aren't buying aussie malt grain? i am assuming logistics makes it to hard.
I wont post any aussie prices on here in case it gives grain buyers so evil thoughts lol!!! (Im sure they get enough data anyway).

I don't think Australia has any tariff free acces to EU markets for grain??? Rapeseed/canola does - the oilseed market commentators are talking of Aussie canola being competitive into UK crushers after Christmas. Maybe they are just trying to generate sales...

We cant send our grain home to the motherland!!!!...ohh i forgot...its called globalization...i must get paid on what a bushel of wheat trades for on chicago stock exchange...then accept currencies that are minuplated...then accept tarriffs...then compete with subsidized markets...then have a government agency report ahead of time of how much oversupply i will have....

You want to try 8 acre fields and a government who is reluctant to let us remove hedgerows.
I think agriculture has problems in most countries.

Australia does produce a lot of food with not many people to feed.

I am assuming its port charges and internal freight cost that kill it...as far as shipping goes thats cheap as chips
You can buy malt barley here for £110 ...the pound has weakened a fair bit...!!
Lets hope that keeps up for my pending 2017 visit...
alot of our export malt goes to asia...and they use accumalation buyer so no bidding wars...1 guy will buy for 50 plus companies...

We do need a population increase...however our government has lost its way on doing this...incapable...
If we could get to 40 plus million it would solve alot of issues..but due to corporates dodging tax with global set ups we are struggling...coupled with poor governece..

No sometimes when we are below certain production levels our prices do well compared to other countries due to it being uneconomical to bring feed grains in...milling and malt we never run short but farmers can hang on to that which makes the price rise.
We did have single desk - gone because of some dodgy dealings with Iraq - we were funding the very war we had been fighting...just like America with ISIS...
Grain traders always push the CBOT price in to everything as its always in there favour - 90% of the time...so they always report how far over we are of CBOT futures...when we are under they go quiet...Co ops are dead which boils my blood...but on farm storage is going crazy here - hard to survive without it now....
feed barley and oats is about 70 quid a tonne...
we will have bucket loads of canola...i am sure the corporate's are already rubbing there hands together...
