I thought you were going to say you had seen a combine roling

No, Wiltshire cider isn’t that good.

All I can say it is proving difficult to try and buy swathed straw, the farmers are seeing pound notes that should of come their way last winter and seem unwilling to believe that this winter will not be the same.

Can you ski?

Thinking more of winter sun , skiing is to much like hard work

How is this for a plan? You sell your cattle and straw, come to my place in the winter for your sun cautious, ah maybe look after my cattle for the privalage () and I'll go and find even more sun

Got a digger haven't you ?

 

[czechmate]

Got a digger haven't you ?

Yes. I must admit I thought we were talking about winter

Not surprised , got a mate in Devon who seen sb from the road and you can see the dirt between the rows , will never amount to much now

Had rain the last week, it will make a hell of a difference to corn ( both winter and Spring sown )

Will be no demand at straw making £100t ex field as that will put it at £140/150t on farm, at those prices farmers will sit it out and buy as and when they need it next winter!

I quite agree things will change a bit , I cannot see straw making a £100 a ton off the field either

Any idea what price grass is selling for off the field? Just need to know what the grass is worth per bale, without raking, tedding baling or wrapping costs. Thanks.

 

[Skintagain]

5 pound a round, good worth more shite worth zero.

 

[Grassman]

5 pound a round, good worth more shite worth zero.

So that's £50 an acre if your lucky!
How much is fertiliser per acre?

 

[Skintagain]

there could be a lot of variables.

 

[ILovebaling]

there could be a lot of variables.

Many, but just wondering what average silage from old land grass is worth and as usual the buyer wants it for half it’s value and the seller wants 3 times it’s worth.

Fiver is what a few have said its worth if they’ve got all the costs to add on.
