So is the fertilizer industry really full of shit!

[TASFarms]

Its 100% bull#$@%. Would be different if it was made out country. We should getting urea in the $300 dollar range facturing in all the cost. Last spring proved it was all bs. "We can't get enough rail cars to ship our fertilizer to port so the price is going to be higher." Every fertilizer retail had abundant supplies of urea after spring seeding. No shortage at all but an oversupply. !00% price gouging

I don't know why a person ever complains, this is Saskatchewan where the highest price is the law. Everything is compared to some far away place and priced to truck it from there to get the Sask price

As you guys know I was invovlved in importing fertilizer to south Australia from 95 to 2000 from Bangladesh mexico south Africa and tampa so ive been on both sides of the fence.

I priced all my fert back in late sept for 2015 year pay in march, was kinda like getting poked in the eye by a fork to buy then and even now is ok there will be more rises for a various reasons.

haven't read much of the above but india and china basically control the market on the demand side.

if I say to much I will sound like a smart arse and sask will hate me....

ps our company got bought out by the devil viterra who have since sold it "margin to thin" to loius dreyfuss Australia.

margin to thin or top heavy to many costs as farmer we ran mean and lean but ultimately got hot for competitors so they bought us out removed athreat and has since started again with my best my but I was only involved in initial first three months this time round.

we peaked out at around 95,000 tonne after 28 thousand in our first year was a learning curve a very fast one.....

No Im not going to argue.
Problem in Canada every thing except phos we have in western Canada. Most are less than two hours away from Liquid or Ammonia or Dry. Yet we pay higher than any other farmer.
Fill us in please. Because if we could get it here on back hauls no problem. Also have this thin dock workers in Vancouver that will make life a living hell to get your product on trains back this way.
When the plants are here its tough to pay through the nose.

You remember who paid for the original saskferco plant?

And what it was sold for?

And which government was in power provincially when it was sold/given away?

[SASKFARMER3]

Your doing the tank exchange or that's they deliver.

[agstar77]

They deliver or I pick up since they only 2 miles away.
