[QUOTE="Brisel, post: 100067, member: 166"] It's not an open market - good sustainable muck-for-straw agreements tend to be based on trust. I import thousands of tonnes of compost & sewage cake every year. I'd take plenty of FYM from aorund the area too as every acre of cereal straw is baled but I just can't seem to get an agreement. My neighbouring dairy farmer with more cows than acres seems to think that his sloppy slurry that he calls FYM is worth £12/tonne :sick: My own FYM gets analysed & I have spread sheets to show the nutrient value per tonne vs bagged fertiliser, plus straw prices are published in the public domain. It's not rocket science. [/QUOTE]
