Corn Prices

[Guest]

Back to wartime diet search and scour the hedge-rows, toast crumbled up some of the fanciers used to make their own pigeon cake with simple ingredients. :(

 

thats the way the doo game is going were only people who have money can afford it  

[Guest]

Don't think the current price rises are anything to do with bad harvests, its due to the current high demand. Crunch will come when current stocks dwindle & can't be replaced by this years harvest, then blame will be put on bad weather and crop loss during summer floods, .... and prices will increase again.

[Guest TAMMY_1]

Classic example (for us Scots)" New potatoes" increase in price of chips did it come down did it heck just went back when new spuds came back again - a small bag of chips £1.00 Plus   :( I think corn will be the same on the up and up

 

will the pigeons eat a small bag of chips though  ?

The street ones sure do anyway ;D

The thing is apart from the flood areas the harvest was good because all the wet weather, then the good weather at the end to the season swelled the crops and increased the yeald

Tammy - throw down a bag of chips for the "streeties" and see how fast they go hot or cold makes no difference. Not sure if they prefer tomato or brown sauce they all go ;D

Often wondered what baked beans were, found out a long while back to my utta amaizement that they're not beans at all but maize. Seems it was a marketing ploy by Heinz all them years ago when they reckoned 'maize' would put us Brits off buying [ 'baked maize' ] so called them 'baked beans' instead.

 

Now are they baked?  ;D   And will the birds eat them?  ;D

Surely this will affect the inflation figures that all goverments try to keep under control

Is it no about a target of less than 5%
