Now, someone might suggest that something like this the day after a very large tender for urea that suggested they wouldn't take russian nitrogen was simply down to timing. Plenty of russian wheat available if they want it.

Can you think of a cheaper more versatile foodstuff to replace it with.
That would still only be 50p per kilo, so 20 or 30p to make a large loaf of bread.

If we'd kept on eating principles and ethos mankind wouldn't be up the creek without a paddle like we seem to be now.Slightly off topic.
Whatever situation would the world food supply be,in if mankind had to rely on Organic Farming to feed the planet?
The principle of Organic may be a good ethos, but mankind can’t eat principles and ethos’s.

Just happen to bump into each other at some kind of sponsored trade show ...
Mhmm! Was happy on the day.
Sold two loads yesterday £344 July still a bit left to sell.
The loads sold at £174 for harvest last June perhaps but again was reasonably happy a the time.
Sold £334 harvest yesterday could it be £650 next year?
I actually wish Putin had not invaded Ukraine and wheat was £200/tonne. These prices just make the world a more unsafe place to live in.
How will the end users react to higher food prices?

And fertiliser was£280.
Well it would be, The gas price rise was the start of Putins plan. Destabilising western governments may be the reason for the invasion of Ukraine rather than capturing more land. Are we really sure this war is not going to Russia's plan.
The next twelve months scare me when the inflation hits in western countries.
Gas was already rising last summer, but yes, you don't necessarily need to kill loads of people to win wars....

Ok so 13 chickens to lay a dozen eggs X 125g a day makes 1.6kg. Say 50p a kilo, feed cost therefore 81p per dozen. So I would say it means about 40p in increased feed costs.
You can work out the increased cost of production for chickens.
I saw eggs in the co-op a couple of weeks ago for over £5 a dozen.
