Tirlán has announced changes to its trading bonus criteria for 2027 for grain suppliers.
The maximum bonus will increase from €10/t up to €12.50/t.
However, the new system will also see deductions of €5-10/t and up to €20/t in total where growers spend lower amounts with the co-op.
Fertiliser spend
If you spend less than €10/t of grain supplied on fertiliser you will be deducted €10/t from the announced grain price or if you spend €10-19.99/t you will be deducted €5/t.
If you spend €25-39.99/t you will receive a bonus of €2.50/t and if you spend €40/t or more on fertiliser you will still receive a bonus of €5/t.
Other inputs
Other tillage inputs (OTIs) contribute to the bonus criteria.
These include inputs like agrochemicals, crop packaging and seed.
As with fertiliser, if you spend less than €10/t on OTIs then you will be deducted €10/t from the grain price announced.
If you spend €10-19.99/t, you will be deducted €5/t. If you spend €25-39.99/t on OTIs, you will receive a bonus of €2.50/t.
A spend of €40-79.99/t will result in a €5/t bonus and a spend of €80/t or more on OTIs will attract the full bonus of €12.50/t.
Tirlán has stated that based on 2025 trading data that “84% of growers would not be negatively impacted by introduction of this model”.
