Irish Grain Growers plan a protest outside Boortmalt in Athy over malting barley prices. They seek €200-220/t for 2018, arguing the latest harvest price of €154.80/t fails to cover production costs and that a 2017 forward-fixing deal failed to deliver its premium.
This is a local dispute over malting barley pricing in Ireland with limited direct effect on global feed barley prices.
