Profit boost for Dengie Crops


By FWi staff


FARMER-OWNED Dengie Crops has announced an increase in profitability for the last financial year.

This boost was despite a downturn in lucerne production and its dehydration business,


Operating profits for the year ending April 2001 rose by almost 250,000, based on a static turnover of 18.5 million.


Chairman of the Essex-based firm, Michael Pudney, put the improvement down to tighter control of expenditure.

A rise in co-operative buying and marketing activities has helped to improve overall business efficiency, he says.
