Mustard: Could this be the answer?

Spoonful of Mustard in front of Whitings LLP Farming Newsletter 22nd July 2022

With the reduction of BPS over the coming years and movement in Sustainable Farming Incentives, many farmers/growers are looking for alternatives to traditional crops. One crop that has come to my attention recently is Mustard.

 

Through a cooperative, English Mustard Growers Ltd, mustard is being sourced throughout Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire and Lincolnshire. The benefits of growing Mustard through the cooperative:

 

  • Seed is provided free of charge from the group, along with professional agronomy services
  • Average yields
    • White    1.4t/ha
    • Brown   1.8t/ha
  • Price:
    • White Mustard   £1,315/t*
