    I'm looking for organic weanling crunch in the Midlands.

    Anyone know a supplier of 25kg bags?

    Nuts would do either just to keep a few outwintered cattle.

    My Agri retailer does not supply.

    Also a guide on price per 25kg bag.

    Can you be a bit more specific as the Midlands covers a hell of a lot of ground. Like Mullingar agri stocks 25kg bags as does Town and Country in Longford, Gem hardware in Cloughan always has small bags, Tighe agri in Strokestown always has organic feed as does Coffeys in Lecarrow. That's 4 of the 5 Midlands counties covered and I still could be a distance from you.

    Morrins in Baltinglass do a 16% organic beef nut in 20kg bags for €16. Imported from the UK

    Eddie Naughten beside Caseys stocks it as well. Roscommon is very well served for organic feed merchants probably easiest place in the country to get feed. Glancys in Elphin import feed directly from France and lads say it is of better quality than the English feed.

    Organic nuts are nearly double that of conventional at the minute.

    Organic cattle at sixmilebridge went for over €4/kg at the weekend.

    Few organic cattle listings here: https://herdfinder.ie/listing-category/organic-cattle

    Is that herdfinder a relatively new platform for selling stock?

    What's its reach like?

    I think it has been around a while. It was brought up at a board meeting I was at a few months ago that a few people found it quite good, its free as well so it saves you a bit of cash. I sold 2 lots of organic cattle on it last month, very similar to donedeal but only for cattle and free.
