[QUOTE="Brisel, post: 6995428, member: 166"] That just means you've got an unknown premium if any, but that's how I sell my wheat these days. I grow Group 2 and 4 as feed that might get a small premium in a good year but there's no point in chasing high protein on this light land plus the biggest local mill (Premier at Southampton 750kt/yr) shut 2 years ago. Just the p*ss taking ADM mill at Avonmouth who won't tip a single load without some sort of claim or the tiny Ranks one at Andover. The mill intakes have no idea what you sold it for. If the merchant pays that trick, you'll know where the destination is when you load the lorries - knowing that is a condition of Red Tractor assurance. I got hit for a claim for 74 kg/hl when I sold feed a few years ago. It was a feed only contract so I didn't mind what they did with it but when the contract spec was 72 I wasn't amused at them taking me for a ride. The claim was squashed very quickly following a short sharp phone call! [/QUOTE]
