Daily 432 - Assuming it's better
Farm Tender Daily - All the news from Tuesday, the 27th of February, 2024.
By Dwain Duxson - Click here to go to the Farmer Tender website.
4 Days to go - Our FarmTender2024 - Entrepreneurs in Farming event is not far away. Click here for more info. See the media release here. Read some of the questions we are going to ask: Danny Thomas, Rob Dawes, Claire Booth, Andrew Weidemann, David Jochinke, John Gladigau, Hayley Grosser, Cassidy Johnston, Jeff McDonald, Broden Holland and Sam Van Assche.
Assuming it's better - Respected Grains analyst Andrew Whitelaw (from Episode 3) wrote a good piece yesterday about holding on to Grain post-Harvest. It's our long-held belief that we get higher prices in that period from, say, after Harvest to July. You can read his article here.
One thing that many don't consider is the cost of carry. Andrew has set the price at $4:50 a month, which would be around the mark and which would include interest and perhaps lost opportunity.
In his article, he has graphed the price from Harvest to July and has included the cost to carry price, and more often than not, the prices post-Harvest each year is lower. See the graphs of Wheat and Barley at the bottom of this page. It's very interesting.
It's one of those things where we assume it's better when, if we dig deeper, it's actually not. Holding onto Wool could be another one. Can you name another situation in Farming where we assume it's better when it's actually not? Reply to [email protected]
The Farmers Club headlines - Our 3 topics tomorrow are:
1) We need to increase our risk appetite to give us those game-changing opportunities.
2) Managing the money-go-round these days on the Farm. It’s full-on.
3) In some NSW Towns, you have to back into the Car Park. It’s very inefficient.
Plus more. Join here for free or email reply “Yes”, and I will add you to the newsletter.
Auction starts and finishes on Tuesday. 8 am to 8 pm - See the link here. This week, because of the event on Friday and all of our staff gathering in one spot, we will have a one-day Auction this week.
