[QUOTE="Nithsdale, post: 5468836, member: 17508"] The concern for this coming winter is the Sugar Beet situation. Laumar store in Dumfries is one of Tridents main Beet-pulp stores and is where all their bagging takes place for UK. They have a WW2 air craft Hangar which hold thousands, if not hundreds of thousands, of tonnes. We were in today, there is a tiny heap of 150tonnes in the corner. Nobody is lifting beet yet, hoping for rain - as it is so shriveled up and small due to the drought it isn't really worth harvesting. Beet-pulp sets the feed price, and everything else runs accordingly. This situation is also a knock on from the spring, where beet processing stopped for the 'year' long before we all stopped feeding our 'stock which ate hard into their usual 'carry over' of supply.
