The impacts of the credit crunch are far-reaching and are now affecting supplies of sawdust.
Why? Quite simply, the down turn in the housing market and the removal of many mortgage offers has created a significant slowdown in the number of new homes being constructed. As a result, many workers associated with the building trade have also been made redundant.
The impact on dairy farmers means that we are seeing a reduction in the availability of sawdust for bedding, as a result of the reduction in wood being used to construct homes.
First Milk Direct would urge members to look at their requirements as early as possible and ensure they have adequate supplies sourced for the months ahead.
