I paid 750 last september , if it drops I'll buy more to bring the average down, does that make sense

No it doesn't.

Why ?

pay tax instead then

 

[lloyd]

Why ?

Because there is no rush unless you need it for this year.
At some point the urea price will collapse and normality will return.

Hope your right but March will soon be here
and little positive news lately.
Edit
Just read the Usda report and I'm gobsmacked that it's
actually positive for once .You might have some legs with
your March forecast after all.

I got a price today of 575/t for urea.

 

[lloyd]

or had it delivered...

really not crying wolf here... but it takes 12-14 days to ship a cargo from Egypt to UK and likely same amount of time to wrap it and truck it to farm in UK. That's a minimum 4 week lead time for fresh tonnes. Not to say certain distributors don't have some existing (expensive) stock to deliver first of course.

No point having the lowest price if it's stuck in Egypt is it?

Looks like cheap Urea is moving quickly from order to delivery have you been
in contact with the culprits yet?

You can see as plain as day here - they can't get it delivered quick enough now.

You know what that means...

culprits?

so far as I can see, it's a market behaving as it should. Offers are reflecting replacement values. Works whichever way the market goes.

the issue being it takes a significant volume and therefore risk, for a distributor or trader to position themselves in order to supply the demand

rewards on the way up and pain when it falls. If you can't stand the heat...
