[QUOTE="Cowcorn, post: 7706053, member: 107020"] Yep while current grain prices are good the way the price of fertiliser and fuel are heading next years crops will use up all the extra cash . Of course us farmers never really expect to hang on to it do we.....:):) I got 27% N on friday 310euro a ton the merchant said new stock could be costing 350 !!! Bought it last Feb at 235 and i thought that was dear . 10 10 20 could be in excess of 500 euro a ton by next spring at that rate . The milk price while good is been nibbled away at by slow but constant increases for electricity as well as parlour sundrys like teat dip and detergent . Everybody wants a share of the action but when the commidity surge goes South will input prices follow ?? Maybe if we all conspired to produce less we could short circuit the whole food chain , i mean it has to be better to get 300 quid a ton for 1 and a half ton acre produced with little inputs than get 150 for 3 ton at normal input levels Never be allowed happen of course the populations divine right to cheap food would be under threat and that would never be allowed .
