There’s going to be some horses to shoot over next couple of years

As long as it not to many and depress the beef market .

you can also use this too. I think there's a grass version also...

Nitrogen fertiliser adjustment calculator for cereals and oilseeds | AHDB

Accounting for fertiliser and grain/oilseed prices, it calculates the adjustment in the amount of nitrogen to apply to cereals and/or oilseeds crops.

ahdb.org.uk

Sadly, the AHDB's AN numbers seem to have been overtaken by events.

Who was the 26 0 13 with origin?

I may not spread 200 acres of grass and keep that fertiliser to go towards next year's arable requirements and buy hay / silage to make up the shortfall if the price is right.

It wont be right, who will have hay and silage to sell if no fert to grow it with.

 

[bobajob]

What are the terms on that? Full wagons?

I don't know, I didn't enquire much more!

 

[Will 1594]

Joking aside, will anyone keep some fert back from this year or buy some now for next year? Or is that a silly idea? Would AN keep ok until next year or go lumpy? Next March is a hell of a long time away yet, who knows where the world will be.

Assume CF have got to keep making it as the other industries need the Co2.

got 29 ton left from last year
bollocked for mistake at time
but best buddies now
been in a dry shed seems ok

Who will open the book on when Nitram will break the £1000 barrier?

Tuesday.

 

[EJS]

Will they pay the extra? they wouldnt around here.

Will they have a choice? Diesel, string, wearing parts as well as fert all increased - hay got to go up considerably

That will test even the dairy men!

 

[DrDunc]

That will test even the dairy men!

Not so sure myself. Dairy next to me produces most of his fodder from slurry. Everything is analysed, and the umbilical spreading rate is variably controlled. While feeling pain, the impact of fert prices on his bottom line is nowhere near the coup de grace administered upon us poor buggers with sucklers on straw bedding

Mind you, I wouldn't want to be facing the rise in monthly feed bills that he'll be receiving!

 

[livestock 1]

That will test even the dairy men!

My fert man reckons dairy men are bought up for first cut now some on looking for what they need for second cut.
Plenty beef and sheep men coming for fert now
You will be pleased you bought some earlier even though it looked dear at the time

 

[Fendt65]

Will they pay the extra? they wouldnt around here.

At the moment the answer is no because people had grass coming out of their ears last year but with fertiliser and fuel and wrap the price it is and still going up life will have to change
i do believe that when its plentiful you don’t make as much money as when its tight,perfect storm now will be a drought.

 

[teslacoils]

The difference between cost per ton of grain per N from £350 ton to £800 ton is about £30.

So futures at £250 looking at N alone is better than when we were getting excited about the £200 barrier. I still think we need £300 to feel confident about re-investing year on year though

Yes. Your average 1000ac arable farm will still need to stump up an extra £130k for the same npk. Add in bps reductions. And better hope grain price stays high.

Noone will be gushing in profit. Well, bp might.

 

[A1baz]

What kind is this and who supplies it?

No idea but it’s from Thomas Bell. Last few load from them was Diamond.

And that is money that will have to come trading cash flow or overdraft don't think to many who farm only have got money in reserve for unforseen price rises like this and a collapse in the grain price will take yrs to trade back.

Oh come on. At 3 ton of grain per acre the value of your grain is up £450k. You arable boys are going to make a killing this year. There just won't be enough new Fendts to go around.
