[QUOTE="supercow, post: 4807092, member: 51660"] Our cake is 18% at 210£ I think from NWF, blend 21% at 233£ With davidsons. Il be honest, I don't go around looking for the best price, which I know a lot of you will advise to do. I find a feed company or 2 that I trust, or trust more than the others. I am not a nutritionist and almost lay the fate of my cows in their hands, in terms of nutrition. What I do do is monitor yield every day of my life and monitor condition and fertility. All these things are good at the minute although our feed bill is high at 9.5 pence roughly, I am fairly happy with cow performance. If we didn't have the first cut bulk of last year, end of may it was brought in, we'd be buying silage right now. And a question I sometimes ask is, get rocket fuel for 2/3 cuts and run out in march/April and start buying in variable silages or grow more bulk and less quality... [/QUOTE]
