In our latest market report, Anthony from the Feed Central/Local Ag team breaks down the current trends shaping the fodder industry across the region. From dry conditions in the East to high-quality stock in the South, there are key opportunities for both buyers and growers to move product efficiently as we head into the Easter break.
We are currently seeing a significant surge in activity East of the Newell Highway. Due to prevailing dry conditions in these areas, there is a high demand for quality fodder. However, this demand comes with a few logistical hurdles:
For Growers in the East: If you have product in the shed near the Newell or surrounding areas, now is the time to act. Because you are closer to the demand, you can help alleviate freight pressures and secure a premium price while the need is high.
In contrast to the East, the South currently has plenty of product available. We are seeing excellent quality fodder sitting in sheds, fully backed by feed tests and inspections, and ready for immediate dispatch.
Whether you are buying or selling, activity remains strong across both of our platforms: Local Ag and Local Ag Plus.
Our team is here to help you navigate these market shifts. If you have product ready to go, reach out to us today to get it listed, inspected, and moved to where it’s needed most.
Stay Safe This Long Weekend As we approach the holiday, the whole team at Local Ag wishes you a very Happy Easter. Stay safe on the roads and enjoy the break!
