Silage wrap price?

[NorthumbrianFarmer]

Has anyone dared to ask what the price of wrap is for this season? Haven’t called anyone yet as I’m scared of the answer

Looks like Harpers are pushing a new to me brand Manuli.Probably need to be cheaper than established ones,should find out next week.

I have bought silotite, 2 pallets should do me next year, same price as last year deal done before christmas to be sure of having it. Dont think there was any fresh prices this was stuff from current stock the dealer had.

Bought a pallet of black from Orbital Industries in January for 68.50 a roll, used it last year with no issues.

poorer feed value hay though surely?

Definitely is poorer feed . I baled a lot of hay and one shed of young heifers were solely on hay & some meal . They just haven’t done anywhere near as good as other sheds on either pit or baled silage. Wish I had wrapped it as good haylage
