look this is my humble view the world is in a mess this Ukraine invasion is mostly but not all to do with where prices are today
wheat is now atm north of £300 now its a case of take the fert at a higher price or leave it its your choice.
things will come right but could be two years before they do so who really knows.
so you buy something or buy nowt.
Bearing in mind something a lot of us should have had a decent return on harvest 20 & 21 & 22 is setting upto to have a chance of the same.
23 who knows ???? thats the unknown. sell some of the product forward at what look incredible prices none of us have seen before.
All business's are in it to make money we just take whats left out of the chain & as we all know we start the chain off & poss carry the most risk?

If every farmer dropped their production five percent, prices would go up by plenty more. If we formed three farmer groups, and all "randomly" did the same, they'd call it collusion.
no bother if in new higher mid tier scheme iam hoping to get into ive picked far more fallow than id ever go for but i'll use it & collect the payment & do nowt.
