    I heard this last year that grass seed was going through the roof this year as there was a seed failure in Swizterland I think. in Kerry co-op top 5 Extend is 75 euro it was only 50-55 last year i think. They never do the free bag when you buy 5 on this it only on there Bog standard mix.

    The merchants may be trying it on a bit as well

    I Find Agriteck A4 Mix very good, Suitable for Heavy Ground.As Regards the Price of Grass Seed Going up, The Fact that every dog on the Street now Knows that Farming is going well again, I Think thats the Reason for the Price Increase.. They all Want a bigger Slice of the Cake!:pac:
