(02 January)
Markets have firmed over the last few weeks as it is becoming increasingly apparent that unsold stocks of some domestic grains are tight, and further compounded by a lack of sellers on the import markets.
Added to that, colder weather and a return to regular business activity following the festive season is seeing buyers review their requirements as new feed orders are placed.
Organic premiums also remain at high end of recent ranges.
That said, it is often difficult to sell for quick movement, so we repeat previous advice that any farm sellers should make their buyers aware of potential availability in good time.
