beatingisbest Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 FREE! We grow our own! So do I but with the price of NPK and diesel it's hardly free !!! The farm boys pay for that, and anyway, its a lot cheaper than £150 per tonne! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

antuk99 Posted September 6, 2008 Report Share Posted September 6, 2008 My local can get ex combined for £100.00 per tonne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickeylove Posted September 6, 2008 Report Share Posted September 6, 2008 It would be worth ringing around farms, theres a lot of damp stuff about this year and if you can buy it before its dried it should be cheaper. Last year prices were 160- 190per ton, this year its 120- 150 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jef Posted September 6, 2008 Report Share Posted September 6, 2008 Off to bag ours this morning, £140 per ton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highlander Posted September 6, 2008 Report Share Posted September 6, 2008 Feed wheat, which is plenty good enough for birds, £110 per t. Mix it with free sweepings and it'll go further. Don't buy damp stuff as it won't keep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDFrain Posted September 6, 2008 Report Share Posted September 6, 2008 just got 5 ton for £100 per ton (last years wheat but good stuff) once its gone will be around the £150 mark per ton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wy111 Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 Have a look here, http://www.fwi.co.uk/staticpages/marketpricesandtrends.htm It gives you a good idea of what you should be paying. Look under Weekly data, 1st, 2nd and 4th down I have been buying in 1 tonne lots , so saved a lot of cash. first lot was £180 last lot £90 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
