Fodder Wanted & For Sale

Published: 14/08/2025 By Greg Ridout

It’s increasingly evident that as the prolonged dry spell continues, farmers are exceptionally short of fodder with little, if any, surplus going into the winter. Symonds & Sampson’s agricultural team have been in touch with farms across the region and collated a catalogue of silage, hay and maize for sale.

The catalogue includes 119 acres of maize at South Petherton and a supply of hay at Shaftesbury. Partner Greg Ridout anticipates adding further fodder, including clamp silage, but advises against delay; demand is high, therefore buying early would be sensible.

For further details of the available fodder, please click here. The catalogue is continually updated, so do check in to see the latest entries.

Meanwhile, if you have any surplus fodder yourself, please contact Greg Ridout or George Russo.
