    How many Co-op shares do you have to own in order to qualify for the bonus?

    Pretty annoyed with the €14 per tonne differential on grain announced today.

    If you dont have shares, it more less cuts out the option to deal with them

    Without the Topup they're way behind what the smaller merchant paid. Most around here paid 140 + for barley.

    I wonder how many non members deal with them? How much would it cost to pay the one price across the board.
    Will have to look at different options next year.

    2000
    They were for sale at €5 per share in 2015, I think
    They were offered to new milk entrants and grain/beef farmers.
    The allocation for grain guys wasn't sold.
    The trading is closed ATM but they can be bought privately if you can find someone selling.

    The €10k investment has since paid back €12k to date.

    Went else where a few years ago, the whole bonus scheme stinks, with them trying to get their milk guys locked into only buying from the they are trying to put the independent grain merchants out of business so they can screw both sides!

    What's the correct figure? My calves is based on spin out and dividend

    If it's incorrect, I certainly didn't mean to mislead

    It's sub 7k, where did you pull the 12k from you'd arrive at that only if you'd tagged on the cookie jar money but that's t a sticky point
