United Oilseeds is the UK's leading break crop specialist and was founded over half a century ago. We are one of UK's largest farming co-operatives and specialise in the sales of oilseeds and other break crops to farmers and offering a highly successful marketing service for the farmer. Being an independent farmer owned co-operative, we strive to provide added value to our 4,500 farmer members' businesses, through a professional approach, from the selling of seed to the marketing of the crop, and in the true spirit of a co-operative business we distribute a profit share each year when the funds are available. Having 55 years' experience and a network of area managers throughout the country, we provide a level of service and expertise which is the envy of the industry. The board, some time ago, set out a policy to increase the reserves of the company to a point whereby, a profit distribution could be made to our trading members as mentioned above. Over the last 14 years a distribution of £4.91m will have been paid back to our members. The strong balance sheet gives our farmer growers the confidence in our company.
