    Sulfur price

    As EV battery plants around the world buying massive quantities molten sulfur to build battery’s , sulfur for fertilizer to grow food is about to become very expensive.
    No doubt the Iran situation not helping but it is a glaring example of priorities of the green dream over basic food production.

    1500/mt for Tiger 90, pretty sure I paid $360 few years back.

      And the best part is, virtually all of the sulfur is a byproduct of fossil fuels.

      The same imbeciles who want to end fossil fuels also want to increase the demand for the product that can only come from fossil fuels.

      If we ever develop an affordable reliable alternative energy source, we may still end up extracting fossil fuels just for the sulfur and to maintain atmospheric co2.levels.

        If you check, the last Tiger 90 you applied is probably still there. Ours is from 2 yrs ago. Used it one year and then switched to fall applied Thiosulphate ahead of canola.

          Elemental sulfur is the best source of sulfur in locations that don't really need sulfur.
          Can't beat it in that situation.

            Lasting long is sometimes a good thing.

              It takes biology to break tiger 90 down. If it’s still there after 2 years you are doing an excellent job at killing biology.

              main side effect of the crop production book. 99% of the products in the book have a negative impact on biology. Some a lot more than others.
