Fert is almost gone ??

The companies are creating a shortage, that's what's happening and their getting away with it. Yea we have real open system in Canada. Just like oil falls gas goes up.

You would think they would keep the price of n low,just so we goose it and grow big crops for them to gouge us on,not even the decency of giving us a reach around,pretty twisted.

Not all the Graincos handle crop supplies anymore. Cargill, Richardsons and Paterson do. Viterra is out and I dont know if all P&H terminals do. Thank goodness for the other guys and independants, otherwise things could be uglier.

"Mosaic profit nearly triples on ""strong"" demand". Bought some stock the other day...hopefully not too late to the party. Can't legally steal without getting thrown in jail, so I figured may as well join them.

[SASKFARMER3]

Only in Canada where theft is legal. Sooner or later something is going to get some ones attention.
This last year they never let companies fill warehouses early at a discounted price. So now yes product won't make it because all will be trying to get product out at the xmas price. Thus a shortage.
Ah farming where every part of the system f$&ks farmers.

I realize this is pretty much for Potash, but doesn't the sound of the guys voice want to make you have a group hug and sing Kumbaya?

Realize one thing. Farmers will need to put more and more on as we use up the nutrients in the ground some are lucky to have hog manure. If we need to pay more per ton for the fert and recieve less per ton when we export the grain. Its not sustainable.

A restaurant makes a soup special. Lots of inputsin that great soup including labour ins etc. That soup needs to turn a profit.

In the case of the western canadian farming soup if a grower did not sell last months soup how can he stay in business. I believe suppliers are afraid to take in product. A shortage although rare may be a possibility this year.
