would not bet on it this time
Have been 'told' that some big players; buying groups & farming companies may have been in the bunfight as things rocketed with little or no cover. Is this actually the case?
By 'told' that is exactly what I mean-I have not been categorically informed of this as fact. Woldmarsh were mentioned...there are surely some members who may want to comment.
For clarity, we, I, would normally buy 2nd & 3rd cut silage N after new year for delivery before June. Looks like a stretching job on my urea!

I will send you as it’s a trust based in Paris
So who's brave in this situation ?
Oh dear , good luck
I did say it wasnt really applicable but I suppose anyone buying at £650 is both brave and scared
Stupidly brave
Something will give. Either the ceiling in meat/grain/veg prices or input prices will fall.
There is no way world food output can be maintained without affordable inputs.
So if the world wants the same amount of farm output it will either have to pay more for the output or provide inputs for less. I predict it will be a combined of the 2 as there is going to be inflation everywhere for a while.

I'm thinking the same, a period of massive inflation, or it will all come crashing down. You pays your money, you takes your chance.

For grassland ,chicken muck wants buying now and sheeting up so it comes out like rocket fuelled black peat next spring . How many farmers will blow the sfp on fert rather than wait and see? Sod fert at anywhere near its current price, if nobody bought any im sure it would drop.

Every body will buy early in May / June 2022 come spring 2023 there will be no buyers and the price will then fall.

Same could be said of food or gas.
Problem of playing that game is that you’ll end up breaking before they ever will.
It’s a global issue of lack of supply. If we won’t pay the price someone else will.
Only a short period you could refuse to buy food before it wouldnt do you any good!!
Use less fert, produce less product that will then increase in price and return the same profit as before. Madness rushing to buy fert at current prices imo

Not if feed wheat hits £250t by harvest.
