# Hardly any hay and potatoes in the domestic feed market - Roughage Analysis

> Dutch forage trading was quiet as dairy farmers moved to winter rations, while grass growth appeared to have stopped with colder nights.

Reduced starch-potato availability is limiting supplies of potato pulp and supporting its price, while the rise in spent-grain prices increases costs for livestock farmers using it in rations.
