[QUOTE="ajd132, post: 6997605, member: 4612"] it starts with low fixed cost structure, which I am working on getting lower and I would guess many other are too. wheat obviously profitable osr looks good this year, first time grown in 5 years, not sure if i will be able to repeat it though as the goalposts seem to change alot. spring barley - can be very profitable, ours goes into CS then into boortmalt generally, no storage worries, VC spend should be low, do not copy what they suggest in the mags! spring wheat - as above, keep cheap. into CS so no worries about ergot again no storage worries. spring milling wheat this year could be very profitable provided we capture the quality if harvest is bad, but we have the drying and stores to do that so no worries there. beans - tight but worth in the rotation, dont grow peas here so cant comment. fallow - you still have fixed cost on this so you are losing money straight away unless you restructure business for a permanent level of fallow maize - no idea, messy?
