The weather is too lovely to be sat working in the office this lunchtime but hey, we don't mind one little bit while having to write up our StoneXMilkpricescomUKMFE forward curve report with moves so positive 📈 in the last week which has pushed butter/SMP futures to 65wk high 🚀

Calving is just around the corner for autumn calving herds. Good management at drying off and during the dry period will pay dividends during the next lactation. #farminguk #teamdairy #autumncalving #farmers #DairyFarmers
