Could someone tell the current bulk price for dark robust?
2010 - barrel stove & a steam table pan. 10 - 12 trees
2011 - same deal as the year before. My son is now hooked along with me.
2012 - Took over the garden shed and set up a Mason 2x3. Hoping to tap 30 - 50 trees. Ended up with 100 taps out.
Finished the season with 16 gallons made
2013- - Purchased a Smokey Lake 2 x 3 Hybrid pan. WOW, what a difference!!
The short answer is not enough. However, I don't know the exact figure for this year. Good luck this season.

If Canadian Syrup is carrying a 25% tariff, I'd think the big guys should be doing better, not worse.

Bulk prices aren’t typically set until the season is over or nearly so. Anything before that is just a Magic-8 Ball roll.

Interesting development: In light of the trade wars wholesalers have filled their U.S. warehouses with Canadian syrup ahead of any tariff. A rational thing to do. This may cause downward pressure on the price they are willing to pay going forward.

They are all a little different but here is some info. Hope it helps.
Butternut has a lot of variables but here are the basic prices per pound.
If you make over 35,000 pounds and deliver it to them its $2.50 for (GD,AR,DB), $2.25(VD), $1.75 (process), $0.62 (for the bad stuff). If you make less then 35,000 pounds cut 10 cents per lb off those prices, if you want them to pick it up cut another 2 cents/lb off those prices. They also pay 15 cents/lb more for organic syrup plus 3 cents/lb if you own your barrels and they have finance deals which will make you more money if you delay your payment.
Bascoms is more straight forward.
$2.45(GD), $2.40(AR), $2.35(DR), $2.10(VD) $1.40(Process grade), and $0.75 (for the bad stuff). They also pay 15 cents/lb more for organic syrup
