Straw exiting GB and hay going into power stations

Posted on: 04/09/18

Ian has spoken to two people who have confirmed that significant quantities of straw have already been delivered to Iceland, Denmark and Belgium with a further enquiry to deliver to Norway and demand from all four countries is very strong. 

In addition, one haulier is taking hay into a power station due to the shortage of straw.  Anyone playing the straw market is unlikely to have budgeted for straw going to Iceland in curtain sided trucks on back loads.
