Turkey detains Russian-flagged grain ship from Ukraine

Ship tracking reveals the route of a grain shipment from Russian-controlled Ukraine.

Ukraine seems to be making a lot of demands. Apparently its demanding to be let into the EU in a handful of years. Cant see either happening.

Still, food prices will surely be dropping now so noone needs a pay rise.

They will go up quick enough when there isn't any post harvest '23

Down £100 in a month , cancel fert order .

U not forward sold any grain?

 

[Flatland guy]

For the UK market, an early harvest is playing into the hands of the trade, rather than purchase expensive old crop hope fully call upon the well bought ( to them) new crop that they have contracts for and hopefully things might have settled down when they really need to get buying or prices will drastically rise. The trade is on a knife edge hoping that harvest exceeds all expectations but are ignoring farmer concerns about less fertiliser use and the effects of a drier year on yield, which must point to lower yields, anyway soon find out now.

Nov 23? tbh at that price with fert, I expect to reduce wheat and grow more spring barley.

I'm rubbish at growing spring crops

I muck everything, plough nothing (ATM)

A nice relaxing week ploughing in early October might be better than thinking about the blackgrass for 8 months.

Why not compare with mixed farm that DDs? Comparisons are meaningless with two variables.

I'm currently not DD I'm mine till yields haven't increased, on average, since going min till and costs have obviously decreased. If my no till drill arrives I will go the next step, I do know it's without issues and am contemplating bringing the plough out of the long grass/nettles to tackle some resistant Ryegrass.

It will be interesting to see how many of the high prices for forward sold wheat are actually paid once it gets to the mill.

I’ve got two loads of milling sold for over £330 due to go next week. Will be interesting to see what happens.

Had two loads go into Heygates this week at £349 that were knocked down by the princely sum of £6/t.

Would have seem harsh when wheat was £120/t but under the circumstances we managed to take it in good grace!

Same here, it's everywhere, wholecrop plus 2 other cuts really helped, but the problem fields are even resistant to Kerb and Falcon
