I think the potential for shortages is about to hit mainstream media and from then on it's 'to the moon' as day traders get involved in the speculation and more countries start stocking up. Strap in folks good luck to all!

Food prices about to soar
A worldwide shortage of nitrogen fertilizer used to boost crop yields may affect next year’s food prices.

predicting grain prices for harvest 22 or 23 is as difficult as predicting the weather for that period
ultimately the weather will determine the world production and the price
some will guess right and some will guess wrong
high prices solve high prices (increase supply reduce demand )
low prices solve low prices (reduce production increase demand )
as a farmer i am always long grain

Never thought you were this optimistic!
Nobody's mentioned '23 yet at 188?

It's not, unless you really have bought noth
Optimism = yield X price.
So while next year's prices look good, if we only get 3t/AC at those prices then we will be back to relying on the handout.
I'm optimistic about the last harvest as I know my yield; my grain is in a store; my profit per acre is good and getting better.
Not counting any chickens yet. If we did get crap national yields, then £600/AC leaves not much at today's fert prices. So as usual, it's a bit too much of a gamble. Yield is king, and I've 40ac that's not out of the ground yet.

Market has dropped £4 apparently due to new covid strain concerns. Probably just a blip.

Doesnt alter the fundamentals. Not enough wheat, in not enough places, with not enough shipping or haulage. Not enough fert for next year's crop. Price not high enough to stop the Chinese eating pork or chicken.

usa thanks giving holiday so market not open yeasterday ,day before traders covering them selves and profit taking and not wanting to have a lot of risk over the holiday
see what happens later this afternoon when the usa markets trade
trade figures for supply and demand out yesterday show we have exported 91000 july to september there are also boats being loaded now and up to christmas
the figures give 550000 of wheat as available or export of extra stock 91000 gone upto september
with uk wheat prices not high enough to stop exports 450000 tonnes in 9 months
1.3 million tonnes of usage a month less than 4% leeway
did we harvest 14 million tonnes in 2021 is still a very big question
could be very tight come july

An email received from Viterra this morning scaremongering a price drop.
In the past the market recovers a day later after their emails.
Possibly a reason to hold.

That's good going. Personally I'm just selling a bit every time the price looks tasty.

Who was that with?
Out of interest, what is the correct way to deal with 'Nov wheat' that hasn't been collected?
I've called the rep twice, and reminded him that it was sold to pay December bills. Am I obliged to roll it over into December uplift and accept a paltry £1 carry?
At what point can I legally tell him to tear up the contract as he's buggered up my cashflow?
Or am I potentially obliged to carry it all the way to June for 7 months x £1 carry fee?
And, is it about time the NFU negotiates a '2% carry', instead of the £1, which hasn't changed since Adam was a lad...
