I don't do the 10% being a professional farmer who always manages to get it on at 20 degrees or below and just before some rain.
Ps there must be some bloody professional farmers in Australia for example with the amount of urea used there!?

The main source for UK is Egypt.

Algeria attracts duty at 6%

The last levels done would suggest farm levels would be in the range £730-£750 in big bags. The recent Egyptian sales, largely to cover short distributor sales into France and UK, have risen by around $30-$40/mt. Replacement today, I would imagine, would be at levels around £780, give or take

If you want to keep buying AN at £725, fair enough; it's a buyers prerogative. At current levels, Urea is "worth" £820, give or take? Conversely, Urea at say £780, makes AN worth about £650...

You pays your money and you takes your choice...

I'm planning using mine as first application on winter crops in March so hopefully volatalisation not a issue. Might be some washed out.
