Think we are ok for now at ONLY 110.9p  

On a seperate subject this dozy arsed government doesnt seem to realise that EVERY single issue to do with inflation and price rises is to do with Gas, Electricity & Petrol price rises.

Every single item you can buy needs to be manufactured using power and/ or transported.

I managed to get £29.46 worth of V-Power into the Westfield yesterday. It's only got a 27 Litre tank.

When I first built it 8 years ago I couldn't get anywhere near 20 quid.

It`s truly shocking how fuel prices are soaring: last week, I ploughed/harrowed/rolled my fields in the tractor for three days (averaged out at 210 litres a day) burning nearly £447 of red-diesel........last time it was ploughed; 2 years ago, the bill would`ve been almost exactly half.

And as a result - and this is no slight on you - your production costs have increased, and you will have to at some point (and rightly so ) pass these increased costs on ?

This site has been really useful to me.

Some of you chaps might find it useful.

 ....would that it be that easy; the supermarket-buyers whom bid on 'finished' Lambs at the sales have a top price which currently is less than the production costs for the animal, supermarkets (whom are pretty much the only buyers at auctions hereabouts) want all the profit, the only choice as a seller is to not sell to them and to bring the animal home from the sale.
Ploughing with it`s fuel/machinery/fertiliser/lime-spreading and re-seeding costs is an investment, in the hope that improved pasture will yield better grass sward and consequently a higher quality meat carcass in the years to come....but with all such investments the payback time is long (if at all).

Ouch   I knew agricultural times were hard but production costs> final sale cost

Last time I was back in Nantwich the petrol price was always 4p more expensive than in Stoke 15 mins down the road!

Now thats more like petrol stations fixing prices but the government are robbings us too.      

If only my job allowed me to protest
