The wet winter, followed by the prolonged dry spring and August heatwave, has affected straw yields and grass growth, raising concerns that some livestock farmers will be facing a fodder shortage during the autumn and winter.
Last used in 2018, the fodder bank helps members find animal feed for their farms, or sell any surplus to assist others, in response to the shortages. The free matching service links feed, farmers and hauliers online.
If you have fodder available to sell or are seeking feed or bedding, follow this link and add a listing to our fodder bank.
