As much as we need every penny to cover the rise in costs we are experiencing at the moment I'm sort of hoping that feed wheat doesn't increase, if it does we may loose our friends who rear poultry and pigs.
It's a tough one

Tbh we need their prices to go up enough to afford wheat at £500/t. Because it wants to be up there if fert is over a grand.

Yet again their fate lies in the hands of the processors and retailers who must realise the predicament producers are in.

Whether they do anything about it is another matter. They seem stupid and pigheaded enough to watch while the golden goose chokes to death.

With regards to Ukraine when i look at the map of the invasion they havent really captured much of the country yet. The Western half is pretty much untouched by the war so far. I'm not sure how much grain is grown in the Western half, but put yourselves in their shoes. If you had the seed/fert/diesel you would plant it. Might not be able to harvest it or might be unsure where to sell it but I bet a lot is still planted.

I posted a map elsewhere but a big chunk of very nice soil is now in "Russia".
