I did wonder if it was something like that when I was told today
I assume they have bought gas at a forward contracted pice and sold it on?

Think a lot of the expensive fert was on 30 days pay,I wonder why?

Credit risk at a guess because of the value!
Was ordered a while ago at a then ridiculous price of £350

Or maybe not easy to cancel order once it's paid!

payment 30 days after delivery? Or 30 days after order?

30 days after order would be pre delivery at the current rate and I ain’t that stupid.
fortunately ours is now coming next week which pushes into another month and the terms are calendar month plus so I am not complaining

Delivery,brave to pay before that.
A lot of the expensive fert will have been or will be delivered in the next few weeks and should be paid before end of December,if the market takes a dive going into next year there will be quite a few unhappy farmers,but if it's been paid it's tough sh_t!

Yes so cannot cancel after order because you have received goods! Your original post doesnt make sense!

I wouldn’t get too excited for any drops in a hurry, global supply cannot match demand despite all the conspiracy theories

Think you get my drift,once it's on farm and paid for there's feck all you can do about it,clear enough!

Yes I get your drift. However as many have commented this isnt a UK problem, it is a global problem, there isnt enough fertiliser to meet demand. So whilst everyone would like to see a drop, realistically it ain’t gonna happen in a hurry.

Love it how the fert boys on here continue to talk the prices up,I think most that have panicked will have bought by now(myself included)but the ones with big balls will sit it out,I do think and hope that they are right, don't see much more new fert sales until prices ease,as for shortages,the fert boys would have us believe it's scarce but I would rather it came from an independent source.
It's probably the biggest judgement call we've made for many a year

I wouldn't say gas price is falling yet. It's trading in a wide range not far below peak. It's near lower end of range, so it will either break the range lower, or reverse back into middle of range.

Problem is domestic demand is about to soar
