Dutch Yara granular Urea, £269 ex docks (farmer collection) NE England.
Edit: bulk, July boat.
Equates to AN (34.5%) at £201.75

Drove past the CF factory gates at Billingham yesterday, and they have 1st cousin to SFA stock in the yards, normally about (fag packet maths) 60,000t bagged and sheeted in heaps waiting for delivery...

Dry weather over the last week or two has meant they have loaded from outside I was told on Monday whilst unloading mine. Full up inside apparently.

I can't get interested in Urea at £285 ton at the moment. I waited until March this year and got Urea as it drifted back to £265 and I only have to write the cheque for it end of July. Its all very well buying super early but the carrot doesn't feel like much of a carrot at the moment.

£20/t sounds a fair bit....but if you multiply it up by a full load of 30t it's only £600 saving on £8k spend brought forward a year. Not to mention the storage "cost".

I fully agree but by the time I buy In March it may well be April before you see the dam stuff or near as dam. I’m aiming to cut first cut before the end of April so I need to be looking at it by mid feb atleast.

Had two loads of Yara Amidas delivered today. When I spoke to haulier on Monday he was well cheesed off. He had 5 wagons at CF Ince to collect AN and they had run out :eek:
Could be a while before I see my Yara Prilled N :LOL:
