Todays RNS is nice and steady, and certainly puts this one down for more research from me.

the warehousing business has had its troubles but seems to have stabilised and the fuel delivery business has been a problem due to weather conditions. it is a bit up and down .

About 4 years ago, nwf was 55m, wyn 60m, carr's 60m
now nwf 65, wyn111, carr's 150m
how similar businesses suffer different fates!
could be something to do with the greater diversification of the others...

why does this stock often go into "auction"? is it because of stock shortage when there is demand ??

Market had priced in the interim report and the half year result must have been better than expected. Let us hope for a good second half.

No real surprises . Just a solid company which relies upon agricultural market conditions to make a surplus . Helping to supply the nations food and fuel .

Very solid results and good to see dividend increase, shows confidence and I expect good capital growth in the share price over the next period. I hold for long term and will reinvest the dividend and maybe add a few more.

Apologies if I waken everyone up...but...a fairly solid announcement from NWF:-

NWF Group plc ('NWF' or 'the Group')

Trading update and notice of preliminary results for the year ended 31 May 2014

NWF Group plc, the specialist agricultural and distribution business, announces that trading for the year ended 31 May 2014 has been positive and it is expected that the results will be at the upper end of market expectations.

The Feeds division has continued to trade strongly with a focus on direct supplies to farmers across the country and development of the S.C. Feeds business since its acquisition in November 2013. This division has continued to increase market share, particularly in the dairy sector, despite market demand being more subdued than the unusually high demand for ruminant feed in Spring 2013.

In Food, as planned, the business has focused all activity at the main Wardle site and successfully exited the Deeside facility. At the same time, as previously announced, long-term contracts have been agreed with major customers underpinning future performance.

The Fuels division has performed well during the reported period, despite experiencing significantly reduced demand for heating oil through both a mild winter and very mild spring.

Additionally, we are pleased to announce that we have agreed new long term funding with Royal Bank of Scotland for five years through to October 2019. Our facilities have been increased to GBP65 million to support the development strategy of the Group and have been agreed on improved terms.

Commenting on the update, Richard Whiting, Chief Executive said: "NWF has delivered another solid performance and we are developing successfully as a result of targeted initiatives in all three of our divisions. The acquisition of S.C. Feeds has gone to plan and demonstrates the strategic intent of the Group to continue investing in Agriculture. The new financing agreement with RBS will support our future growth plans."

NWF will announce its preliminary results for the year ended 31 May 2014 on Tuesday 5 August 2014.

A meeting will be held for analysts at 10.30 a.m. on the day of the results announcement at Tavistock Communications, 131 Finsbury Pavement, London EC2 1NT.

Share price strong on no news?
Looks overvalued unless there's a bid in the offing?
Wafer thin margins on feeds and fuel.Hope there are big synergies on the feeds acquisition.
I hold but getting itchy trigger finger.

sadly this must be true . Huge amounts of grass seed will be needed and some crops may need replanting . What a disaster this is. We should donate part of our dividends to the disaster
