That's urea at 780 - dunno if that would buy it here now. I'm starting to lose confidence in my assumption of N being ~£1/kg for the '23 harvest. Irony is, if that is the case I am minded to plant more crop in the autumn as grass & feed costs v beef price doesn't add up.

So this guy is pretty much in line with things. I bought urea and sulphur from him. He was priced 125$ a ton more than he got after I agreed to take it ASAP and offered up that I’d take all my input business elsewhere. Been with this retailer 20 years and this new rep has soured that relationship pretty quick.

germany and the eu have the power to end this crisis but won't......gazprom are delivering exactly their contracted gas volumes but no more.....russia is fed up with eu/nato expansion east and germany's regulatory pee up over nordstream 2

nordstream 2 could get permission by spring...then it has to go to eu for non binding opinion......september at the earliest:mad:

these tw@ts would rather see hyper inflation and cold citizens than throw away their clipboards:mad:

edit....gazprom has stated if nordsteam is approved it could double gas into europe....AND.....the pipeline is full of gas.....it just needs the tap open

As per I have my suspicions we're all being taken for a ride. It seems a little suspicious that as the Powers that Be are pushing for less crops / more enviro / reduced fert the price of fert and chem has gone through the roof.

Another coincidence?

Doubtful.
The US farmers on here are also reporting extremely high prices and the states certainly aren’t trying to curtail their production.
this thing is way above what Carrie symonds and the goldsmiths could orchestrate. ELMS is not going to affect world gas prices!

I perhaps typed that in too simple a fashion, there's far more going on behind the scenes than ELMs ie redistribution of certain industries to certain world areas etc,

it all seems far too coincidental.

Will price drop for next season? We have a lot of wheat in the ground this year, we’ve pushed it where we wouldn’t usually and have bough N well but next year may be a big area of spring cropping if it stays like this.
Similar situation here, 20% extra cropping and N bought well, it’s harvest ‘23 that’s more concerning for me
There’s over a year to go before it’s needed on farm, a lot can happen by then !!

All my farming life the fert price and the wheat price have always been around a 2 to1 ratio per tonne. I do not think that will change.
In most cases this will be true for 22 crop and by 23 crop either the price of fert will be down or wheat will be up.

Will it be £200 wheat and £400 fert or £300 wheat and £600 fert though.
Might not be 2 to 1, although expensive fert could mean low yields, high grain prices and back to your 2:1 price ratio.
