Glanbia have announced 2006 grain prices ranging from €109 to €124.71, including VAT.

Meanwhile, the Home-Grown Cereals Authority says delivered grain prices in Northern Ireland this week were at £95.50 per tonne for feed wheat, unchanged from last week; delivered barley prices were at £87.17, an increase of £1 per tonne on a week ago.

With up to 15% of UK winter wheat harvested, the HGCA said early yields were slightly lower than last year and somewhat variable.
