No, it's not a "pilot" version, it's a tried and tested method of dealing with pee-takers that has been finely honed over the years.!

Bloody auto correct! I meant the “polite version”

No I have nothing to do with them.

I was wondering that

I was wondering that

If it is then after the molasses there won’t be much of each ingredient in it. Maybe they’ve added some of them to make the ticket look better. Anything with barley and soya pleases farmers better than without

My guess is 5% molasses at most, and probably not that much, that don't leave much for the rest

Yeah 10% soya was quoted.
Varleys feed always feeds well enough the better ration was too good blowing causing too many big tits

I would be surprised if it was 10% soya when it’s listed below the molasses level. Dark grains are a good alternative protein source though.

if it’s causing ‘too many big tits’, surely you are feeding too much of it? I’d sooner feed the best ration I could, at a lower rate.

Can't help myself

Sometimes it’s in the breed too

Is there a good website where you can track cost on straights? Trying to find out what prairie meal cost 12 months ago?

Interesting search, I dare say you will struggle with such a specialist product. It was £895/tonne in bags delivered from Waltons in Nov. if that helps, was £820 in September

 

[John Deere 8530]

Quoted £317 for 18% cattle growing nuts. £369 a ton for rock salt, have a feeling I bought some this time last year for £250ish.

 

[Optimus]

Usually feed Davidsons ewe rolls and Happy how they do. But I can get carrs top of the range roll ewe max 19% £20t cheaper than Davidsons middle of the range.
Went off carrs years ago
Should I change to save £100 a fill of the bin

Are you sure? Was quoted £335 for Carr's 18% and Davidson's 18% £313

I will need to double check. It does seem out of line with other prices.
