You've spent 15 years slagging off distributor agronomy and now you've turned!
not at all
I would still only ever take independent advice here
But that advice does cost and has to be added to the costs of saving made buying independently, for some farms the advice cost may out weigh product the saving is all I'm saying, its all very scale dependent
I am now aware that some distributors will sit down with larger units and write the a cheque for any over spend at the year end if the farmers can prove a price was not competitive ............... there are farmers that join buying groups and never buy anything just to get this data to beat up their supplier with !
Of course the ideal situation is to not use independent or distributor and make your own decisions ! so lets limit the "how smart am I using a independent" claim just a little ! The really smart guy looking for every saving possible would be doing his own agronomy
One think that us for sue is that the internet has well and truly screwed up the ag chem market - since we have had this new price transparency juts look at what has happened to distributions profits !! ............... some days I wonder why I am still alive or why TFF hasn't been hacked a lot or why someone hasn't offered a lot off cash to make social media juts STFU !
