fertilizer prices

[just_wondering]

with the last of the peas in sight here is the little I found from the drivers seat. 46-0-0 deivered to the yard in oct $460.00 I do have to pay off my old bill first though.
FNA has some thing where you pay $477 in then they will rebate back to you based on the rate they pay. Something about last year they posted prices and then local dealers beat price by 1$. Still looking into Rye to Minniapolus then back haul a blend.
-will keep y'all posted
Whats the deal with phos and the $160/tonne jump?

Last september i pre bought ruffly the same amount for 340(or was it 360?).

I did it for the same reason as i did this year strong grain prices.4$ corn made it a safe "speculation".The rest of the strong grain prices this year make it a safe "speculation" again.

As far as gas prices pull up a yearly chart and you'll see how explosive it can be.Then remeber were in a commodity bull market and it is only a matter of time before everything moves.

I see EXTREMELY high fertilizer prices in the next few years.

In Comedia, fertilizer prices are now secret. The market deals with every framer individually. They gaze into your eyes, talk softly to you, tell you how great a framer you are, then gently slip it to you, big price, little price, doesn't matter. It's still good biz for them, cause they hold the magic formula. Gotta have it man, gotta have it, just like a frantic drug addddick.

If that's the case cotton, why didn't you buy 3 years worth of fertilizer this fall already?

Why didn't you do it last year?

What about all those rock solid predictions and the amazing insight into the markets of yours you keep bragging about?

[BennyHin]

Franny: why are you pick'n on Cott'n with respect to predicting markets?

Do I need to pull up some of your old posts comparing US and CWB wheat prices? Some of those "high" US spot bids you quoted arent so high anymore.

Sueweeeeee.

[Fransisco]

Funny, you check the same places today and they still beat today's board prices.

But then you monopolists never like comparing apples to apples do you.

If i had the money and it would store i would.

What did you pay this year for fert fran?I cant remember you posting on the old fert thread so it was probably over 500 eh?

Also,what difference does it make if you "put fert with the seed"-like most of us here do?

[cottonpicken]

As far as market predictions why dont you ask the moderators lee and charlie how i am doing.

[Fransisco]

What's the matter cotton, banks won't loan you the money for storage? Should be a slam dunk what with your solid track record and all.

Cotton I pulled up a yearly chart to look for the explosiveness and found only implosiveness. NYMEX:NG Last year this time just under 10, now 6.704 and on a major slide and no chart indication that that is going to change, if you see something on the charts you can let me know. Am I looking at the right exchange? Is there some sort of basis in that price that can also change sorta like our grain price basis? Since New York is a long way away and really what the hell does the price of Natural gas in New York have to do with Natural gas in Sask. So must be basis involved and just some insite as to how our gas is priced here would be appreciated.

Kam,I prefer barcharts.com.A yearly chart is a chart that goes back 10 years(it sounds like your looking at a monthly chart).The gas chart will show you that it has the capacity to swing plus or minus 400% in the matter of months.

If you believe that were in an upswing in commodities then at some point gas is GOING to take off on technicals alone.And if the price of gas goes up in ny then yes it goes up here.Its all part of an "intergrated" market.
