Standing Wheat straw now well over £200/acre in the SW

[bobk]

I am too.

But I've said that already ....lots of times.. .and repeated the questions.
Next course of action is to tell the possible people he is inferring the claims about.
Might see one of them in the pub tonight.

He did pm me , threatening to sue me for defammation , I believe he's well versed in the legal proceedure .

Really I had heard that as well. But in an opposite direction I was told. But I may have misheard. Apologies if I was mistaken GUTH do correct me if I am wrong.

the sale was very near the boarder so where the buyer was who knows

 

[Henarar]

It may turn out to be cheaper per ton than the lot that made £40 an acre

 

[Sid]

I am thinking Henarar and Guth bought it between them.
Paid £100 an acres each and think they got a good deal as it was only £100/acre.

In the pub I should think!

Still a few standing straw sales in South Devon to be held yet so will be intresting to hear what that trade is like.

Some of the standing straw sold this week has already be combined and baled.

How are straw for muck deals going to work out this year?

Established ones will mean one party will loose out vs the other I should think.

I like the idea in principle and have a potential deal in the offing but probably not this year.

oh it would
I have admitted to doing what could be seen as trolling on here before now
It never hurts to see fault in yourself IMHO

I do a long standing one, and will be giving away about 100 acres worth of wheat straw, which is potentially £8/10ks worth this year, but get it all back in pig muck, which is a good ratio of muck to straw, ie_ not strawy stuff.
Couldn't grow decent crops without it, especially maize.
I also get slurry as part of the deal , spread for free, so will run with it .
