[QUOTE="ollie989898, post: 7393853, member: 54866"] I agree, in principle it sounds fantastic, but having had conversations with arable farmers and livestock farmers I've heard both sides of the story more times than I can count. There is no more certain a business transaction liable to incite profanity than straw transactions. 'So and so still hasn't paid me for last years straw!' 'He told me there was straw to bale up and he hadn't even started cuttin!' 'I bought wheat straw off that ejit and some of the bales were barley (normally livestock folk view barley as being better), crooked fudger!' 'I bought straw and he turned up with a load that was from last year!' [/QUOTE]
