£205 for blend sounds a reasonable price considering the price of spot markets now.That should work well, we split the nuts between two feeds which suits our system. We buy our 18% nuts in bulk from Heygates for £280 per tonne but I bought a load of surplus 18% nuts from a neighbour who had a contract with a firm and they were only £230 per tonne in half tonne bags so it’s worth shopping around. 16% blend from Berrystock feeds is around £205 per tonne in bulk. We have got the older cattle sorted but do struggle with the younger stock, they’re work in progress!
Yes we've tried this on our wheat this year and has worked very well, we used Harbro Maxxomon which i assume is much the same as Home n Dry?I would treat the barley with homendry or similar it will help a lot with the wet acidic silage as well as saving money . At 14%cp with the high protein silage shouldn’t need anything else. The alkalinity should keep them A bit firmer too, with straw this year that has to be a bonus
