Won't be long until kickoff folks. Will they be opening the books even earlier to take advantage of the high wheat prices? Having paid £1.55 a litre of unleaded at a motorway services, my crystal ball predicts a rough bumming for us all on fert. Covid innit
Fallow and wild flowers dont need fert, keeping cropped area down and prices up is the future... if everyone can agree.

That is just the problem, everyone to agree,
Many years ago someone suggested everyone should leave the meeting and milk 2 cows less a chap stood up and said nay lad you go back and milk 2 cows less Al go home and milk 10 cows more ... And that is exactly why we are where we are ...

The meeting was ICI pushing fertiliser, use more fert milk more cows earn more money ...

CF. NK Sulphur which is 27-0-6 + 6 so3 was £262/ton last Tuesday but by Friday 7th May 2021 it was back up again to £268/ton. Missed that boat and should have jumped on Tuesday. That lack of oomph has cost me £225 on a truck load, which would have kept me in booze for the rest of this decade, or alternatively would have paid for two of the four Michelin tyres I put on the Honda the other day. Damn!
