The deadline for the offer of a contract bean price of €220/t from Quinns of Baltinglass has been extended to this Friday.
The contract offer of €220/t for beans at 22% MC was announced last week at the tillage conference held by Quinns.
Growers looking to avail of the offer should contact any Quinns of Baltinglass office.
Break crop option
Despite the poor yields achieved by many bean growers last year, the crop offers a viable break crop option and, in an average year, has provided a reasonable return to growers with the inclusion of the coupled payment from the Protein Aid Scheme.
