Fertiliser Price Tracker

So rang at 11 and prices pulled Only had 3 loads to sell. Just spoken again and he could have sold his allocation 10 times over. What is happening as got to be criminal if this isn’t price gouging I don’t know what is. The county is going to be begging for food and this just pushes farmers towards low input stewardship or fallow. If anyone important reads this fert companies and the government letting this happen are the ones to blame for this fiasco rather than farmers

Last year I was offered N at £279 in June. Didn't buy as that was up from£192 the previous November when I bought. Regretted that and bought at £485. This year? Who knows what is the right thing to do? War finishes and Putin allowed back in to polite society again and it looks expensive today. War trundles on and more sanctions against Russia and gas goes up it might look cheap?
