177 for lithan, July del, tempted, cash flow may prevent and it doesn't look like I am going to use all of this years now.

I’m sure this has dropped I thought it was mid 180’s last week?

AN at £198 is equivalent to urea at £264.
Best offer on urea was £204 bulk.
I know you can’t compare (bagged) apples with (bulk) oranges, but at N220kg/ha and 3.8t/a (9.4tha) it works out with the blue bag grown wheat costing £8.04 more per tonne output than urea grown wheat. Or to put it the other way round, making £8.04/t less profit.

Isn't that more like £3.00 tonne wheat.

Urea at £204 is 44.34p Kg N, AN at £198 is 57.4p Kg N

At 220 Kg Ha that is £97.50 ha with Urea and £126 ha for AN That is £28.5 per Ha differance. At 9 t/ha that is £3.16.

Price needs to drop further imo, the gas price has dropped nearly 40% since this time last year !!!

I dont disagree but wheat prices are better now than 12months ago & if you believe some of the predictions of this coming harvests from all over the world Wheat is gonna be in tighter supply
All that does at some point is push up the prices of AN/UREA etc.
to get Nitram at pretty much a £60 deduction from 12months ago when current wheat prices are better isnt to be over looked i think

I bought a load of lithan above, the last 2 loads of blue bag that I have had have gone a bit stiff, not worth the premiumif you are spreading to 12m lithan has always been ok.

I only use 2 loads a year and I haven't used all of this years yet on my grass because it doesn't look like it could use it. Oil prices have only got up in them, fert follows that too.

Aren't farmers utterly sick of this open the book for about four hours on a Friday afternoon charade?
Puts me in mind of a village hall "auction" that I went to aged about 12, the sight of the primary school PTA hierarchy clamouring over a cheap eiderdown, whilst a man reminiscent of Del Trotter teased them into a frenzy, haunts me still.

Like the WI at a village fete buying up all the cakes amongst themselves before the stall opens

I wonder of they've opened up sooner because they're sitting on a lot of this summers stock that either wasn't ordered or was cancelled late. I do a regular run past CF's Billingham factory, and in spring you can see dozens of 300t stacks laid out in the yards awaiting collection, and by early summer the yards are emptying.
I'll be driving down the A19 tomorrow for the first time since lockdown, I might take a detour...

thats why you can buy bags of sh1t then

I'm not so sure it's about holding nerve - the demand just isn't there.

Just like nobody is looking to buy a new sofa at the moment.

pipestretcher · Jun 3, 2020

The demand is the never there with the new season nitrogen price, you are buying it for next year. The question is have the sellers made it an attractive enough proposition to use your storage & price it up 9 months before you need it??

Price I had last week for Nitram was £2 more for 1 tonne bags, never had that before. Maybe lose 2t on the load but haulage is not £27/t surely
