Carbon dioxide comes from fert manufacturing doesn't it
Yes and it says in the article that the carbon dioxide is running short due to fertiliser production being cut back / shutdown due the price of natural gas being so high,certainly not looking good for supply of fertiliser!!!
How convenient for the supply and demand of fertiliser to be used as a justification for a price rise :mad:
So much for higher cereal prices leaving perhaps a bit of profit from this year’s harvest.

I know, if anything the fert and forwatf wheat prices are not following each other.
Might have to use more of this next spring....
