Any prices for silage in bales. We selling some to a neighbour who does our contracting so don't want to rob him. Just no idea what it is worth.

Been offered £30/tonne over our weighbridge. Buyer does all the mechanical work and applies 100kg/ha N when he’s taken the cut to replace what I applied in March.

Selling wheat straw to the trade at £140/t presently. They can’t get enough of it and some are panicky to be honest. Opening bid for harvest 21 straw is already £80/acre in the swath so that’s £100/tonne by the time it’s baled and loaded onto trucks.
Overcooked, people want to sit on their hands at harvest, will be £75 to £80 into farm once the idiots have been supplied.
 
Crops are looking fantastic from east to west
That's all I have to say on that
In the interest of fairness about two weeks ago I said how bad things are here, with stunted dieing crops but things have really turned a corner, might be a bit late for winter barley to be above average but wheat now looks superb, it got over a mega liquid scorch and a paloi check and is now flying, with some good sunshine soon it could be a very good year.

In many instances the SB will out yield the WB this year straw wise, lots of wet weather damage to headlands on heavier ground for WB.
