I have not forgotten buying 2 years ago, only for price to "correct" by £20 ton after Christmas.
Or buying Urea at £420 and AN priced at £320 odd in 2008 ish? When CF got all cocky and started this Dutch Auction thing. Best thing to have done that year was nothing; all out of bed by spring, and ill feeling that still remains today.

Haven't forgotten that having not managed to drill intended area wasn't deemed a good enough reason to cancel a load either.

I agree. It has been best to buy early in 9 out of the last 12 years, but that was because it was 200 or less in those years. The 3 years where it’s been more than £250 we have had our pants pulled down later on.
Those that are buying for beet, grass, maize or even spuds have done the right thing in buying early as they need it and it was down from the “old season” price, BUT they only got that price out early this year as wheat was £190 off the combine. They knew it would drop so wanted to price it on the back of that wheat price rather than a lower one.

There's no limit to a mans greed , supply issues also .

You are confusing greed with ambition

Urea prices look like they are going higher. The Egyptian government has just announced export tax up by $100 for producers not meeting domestic quotas.

prices can only be as high as a market is able to return. If wheat drops tomorrow globally fert will follow in time.

We decided to buy half two loads at £274 for Nitram just before they closed a week last Thursday. Got a call on Wednesday fertiliser will be delivered tomorrow. Both loads were delivered by lunchtime not sure why, was the last ordered the first to be delivered?

 

[YELROM]

Nobody else has bought any so they had nothing else to do

Do fert reps have a list of people they believe they can intimidate into buying by threatening to withdraw prices and put them up another £10/t next week?

They've stopped phoning me with stories of price withdrawals and rises.

I'd rather pay an extra £10/t and have the pleasure of telling them to fudge off.

I’ve just been given an eye watering price of over £400 for P&K to go on silage ground. Does anyone know what price Fibrophos is at the moment?

£400 for P and K
What blend is that. Straight MOP still around £260 but rising I hear.

I’ve just had Fibrophos spread on 75ac pre-beet and on grass. The bill came at the same price as last year, £145/t (delivered and spread at 500 kg/ha). No idea what the price would be just for product delivered as contractor brings it out by the spreader load as he’s just up the road.

10-26-26+s. I’ve used this compound in the drill for years but I asked him 3 times because I thought he meant £315 but his quote was £415.
22-4-14+s for grass £302. It’s just crazy hence wondering what the cost of fibrophos is?
