[QUOTE="Honest john, post: 5869066, member: 1026"] Agreed but we all know the prices offered from the big firms. You need to keep them till June to get about £170. A lot did just 5-8 tpa this year. Unirrigated. If you do a bag contract At 180-220 on a 2018 yield of 30tph it’s not going to cover your costs. So let’s say you had a bag contract in 2017 at Ave 200 for 25tph then the other 30tph on free buy at Ave 120 comes to 8600 ha would show a profit of 1100 ha or 445 ac. But in 2018 you Ave 30tph at 200 on the same contract 6000 ha. Leaves a loss of 1400 ha or a loss of 150Ha over the two yrs. That’s if every ship that sailed, resulted in a cheque cashed. [/QUOTE]
