By Dec 31st we will have all our anhydrous, Fert and seed and Gylphos at home or purchased. Just wondering what others are doing. Price for fert alone will be $150,000.00 saving. This year it seems to me farmers should pre buy. Watch if the markets take off before the SA crop is harvested the suppliers will come up with every excuse in the book again about why we need to buy. Equipment makers are creating a shortage now by dropping shifts at factory so as to keep inventory low and buyers waiting. Interest rates are low if your going to buy lock in 5 year rate. Just wondering.

Brand names without generics will likely sneak up 2-3% but there are a few new generics this year like horizon that should put downward preasure on that market. Don't pay more than $4/l for low end glyphosate. There will probably be storage creep up on fert as we get closer to spring except for potash, I think those idiots have dug themselves a pretty deep hole, pardon the pun. I'd be more prone to hedging currency or fuel right now though, I think theres 20-30% volatility there.Comment
