Silage / Straw / Hay Price Tracker

[gone up the hill]

What should the price be per ton ex field ( mid Devon) for New Holland 1010's barley straw, all below 17%m some on lorrys to a dealer some to local farmers?

Local auctions are making between £69 and £75t for new crop barley delivered in.

Off the field its worth max £52/t @fieldfarmer

Straws going to be cheap eh @Forage Trader

About £20 up on last year!

What are yields looking like this year compared to 2016? as that is the important bit.

Those prices are similar to down here 3/4 years ago, straw was very short in 2016 winter but delivered in thru the winter has put a bottom in the trade that is actually less than buying it off field in the summer for some bizarre reason.

What's big bale meadow hay worth? 4x3s nice and green no rubbish.

Winter Barley is not yielding well. A lot of crops not doing 1 ton an acre .price will harden

Anyone cast an opinion on what Wheat Straw off the truck will be over winter ? Would anyone fix a price for say 10 loads?

Where are you ?
Wheat won't be much cheaper than barley

If you average 1t acre of WB straw that is a good average for anything other than the very best land/ largest fields.

WB straw yields down here are well over 1t acre this year and the best for some years it looks like.

I think straw will actually get cheaper between now and xmas.

It won't be cheap by the time you come and collect it from me!!!! Yields are appalling, baled approx. 1500 acres so far and not a bale left on the farm. Straw will be very short, fill you sheds now, if you don't please don't moan in the spring when it's expensive.

 

[Hatch1778]

Wheat will be in very short supply.

Barley looked good until it was cut 2 x 187 bales to the acre down south

 

[Northeastfarmer]

Rain probably came too late for barley though
