These guys pay nearer £10 a ton I believe.

There are a few big firms who will pay for chip, however I would try and find a farm who have installed a biomass system of their own. I am speaking to someone at the moment who has a biomass system that heats a heated floor barn for grain drying. when that is not being used it could be used to dry chip to improve its value as fuel. You could even do a deal where they get free chip and you use the spare heat to kiln dry wood...

 

It's not so much the moisture content and the chip size and consistence Tom. I've seen what you propose being done but the chip was produced from Roundwood on a screened drum chipper and then sold direct to local users.

Boomeco was offering a bit more, so I heard. Oh and stobart are collecting from someone I sub to on Monday, so they can't have that much chip
