Kes Posted August 7, 2011 Report Share Posted August 7, 2011 (edited) Interested to hear what these are costing at the moment where you are. I'm paying £200 a ton for unmedicated game grower pellets and £160 a ton for wheat (because we know the farmer) but this is Cheshire and probably a bit on the dear side. Also, how much do you get charged for small(1 acre) cover crops, inc seed? Thanks for the responses.

webber Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 At £200 a tonne for pellets it would be interesting to know the composition of the pellets. webber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markm Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 (edited) I agree webber. 20% protein are just under £9.00 a bag here in the north east at tonne rate, gives you around £350/tonne. Even poultry feeds are a similar price at farm supplies. I was offered 14% at around £8.00 a bag. Edited August 8, 2011 by markm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thankfully I havent bought yet so I'll make 100% sure before I do. I'll post when I have the answers. Kes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scolopax Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 well at least wheat is not the £200+ a ton that was predicted earlier in the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
