nutriens profits rose 225 % in 2025 to a profit 2.3 Billion

People say invest in the gouging companies if they're publicly traded.
How much capital would you have to tie up with them to offset? Then would share price increase and dividends offset what they're gouging is costing you. Actually you might need that capital you'd invest with them to just pay their higher prices!

Spring finally showed its face in N.E. Sask. We are fortunate to have started the melt a couple weeks ago and opened up the water runs previous to the warm weather. The RMs have have roads and pipes washing out, hoping we don't flood yards and lose bridges. There are going to have to be many road repairs before equipment will move this spring.

I would think that you would need two shares an acre to help offset fertilizer prices, so at $100 a share you’d need $200 @ acre IMHO. No guarantees it would work, but you would have to buy and sell at the right times of the cycle to really make it work. Oil companies on the other hand would hedge fuel prices at a much lower cost but again you have to have timing right.

One question seeing some thing on other sites about an Alberta colony in trouble?

Estuary Colony NW of Leader.

Apparently managers have been fired and new ones from other colonies have taken over.

Happened before in late 80s.

Estuary, Lajord and Star City back then.

[SASKFARMER]

Yes I remember.

[SASKFARMER]

Should be spraying tomorrow.

Brother in law at Wakaw Lake is inches away from having a swimming pool in the crawl space. Lots of roads washed out or flooded.

Realistically what is the likely date for seeding in those areas? Probably Barley acres won't be down.

[Sodbuster]

We’re northeast of there and I doubt that we start seeding before May 15th. Water is still running over roads yet, the RM will have a lot of fixing to do this year.
