Wheat delivered to Devon back £10 t to £75 . Can't quite believe it .But it has been very dry and mild all November so far .
Just shows what madness the standing straw sales were this year, farmers want their heads read for getting caught up in the fever of it. Straw and fodder is going to be for nothing if this weather continues regardless of the price talkers. Anybody asking if there is any fodder for sale gets swamped with offers. Last winter was the best year for straw sellers and this winter is going to be the worst.

I've asked on here if there is any good rb silage for sale but no replies .
Obviously not that desperate to sell .

our last load straw, delivered in was £80, and will happily pay that again, last years av less than £100, same chap, it all evens out.
as above, hay looks cheap, it doesn't cost much to store.
On the other hand, our dairy is still munching nice grass, by day, hfrs are in, but cows still out, that is really moving the winter on. Fodder stocks, look hardly touched.
