Heads up Ammonia going up BIG!!!!!!!!

[oneoff]

The "farm industry" has evolved into making sure little control is put in the hands of the actual producer. The average over extended, leveraged, cash strapped (particularly young entrepreneurs) is promising suppliers and other financiers his contract-committed production before it is even sown.
It's high stakes stressful gambling, using someone else's money in an era of interest rates that must stay at historic lows; or world economies will surely collapse. Its hard to believe that is a sustainable long term possibility; but in a shorter time frame it may be our fate until a wholesale restructuring eventually must ocur. It may well be the current reason why vast amounts of excess money to be "parked" in tangible assets like farmland.
In the last few months; I have noticed volatile exponential rises in land prices; inputs and yes crop prices.
Is everyone near positive they can meet the projections they promised their financiers? It seems very few farmers are fully sailing their own ships anymore.
Some would say that most farmers are darn poor businessmen; and not being in firm control of your destiny is a recipe for asking to be dominated by more powerful interests you have allowed into your business.

Trying not to chuckle,they took mine back.

Along with everyone else's,who the hell are you
dealing with hopper?Are you pitcher or a catcher?

[cottonpicken]

Quick call to supplier says i can book and
cancel,chuckle.

[Hopperbin]

I thought bucket was the one getting his innoculant tested. As far as I know the industry standard if they will not take it back unless they have a sale for it. Innoculant does not keep.

[cottonpicken]

When you don't know what your talking about..shut
your mouth.

Goes for everyone.

[Hopperbin]

It is all possible that you get to take your innoculant back earlier than us as your planting earlier. Vit, Coop, Horizon, unless they can re sell it you shit out of luck here. And why the hell should they take it back anyway like.

[Hopperbin]

I will call your bluff Cotton, who is your supplier? So

[cottonpicken]

Ok sorry,brain has been locked in high gear.

i want.

Last years disaster was no problem for them..they felt
with it????
