Will they be likely to change in the future though? I put 100000 gallon on heavy before the weekend and you wouldn't even know you'd been in the field today. It's madness....

It’ll not change, or if it does it’ll be a longer closed period!

Our waterways aren’t improving so more restrictions will be the only solution that those in charge can come up with

As far as I know DF winter bonus is not paid on fixed litres. We are worse off at the moment, but who knows what will happen in the next 2 years.

Dale Farm 2p winter bonus is for October, November and December supplies. It is not paid on the volume contracted on the DF fixed price scheme this is 27p +/- normal quality adjustments only. A new scheme is expected to be launched at the AGM on the 31st October, the details are being kept confidential until then.

27p too low. Especially if it's 36 months. Better to ride the market. We've 10% tied in. Hardly notice and diff. Aurivo pay the 2 separately so it hard to actually know just how much you are up in money to date
I think 27p is too low especially when you don't get any winter bonus. As for the next version it needs to be more, if it's not then I'm not sure how much interest there'd be in it.
