Fertilizer with Snap and Vwalk

[SASKFARMER3]

Vwalk why are you so pst because of how I do business, isn't farming a business. We have suppliers just like walmart, don't we? Their in business to supply us with goods for which they get bonus for their volume, etc. Its a business. What my neighbors get is their business. Just like whatever you pay is yours. I am just trying to show you how their is benefit to ask and push and complain instead of just walking in and taking whatever they give you as pure 100% truth. Simply Viagra or Pioneer etc or Cargill need us as farmers and if we all just once agreed with a way to deal with them they would be at our mercy instead of the other way around.
Any way have a great day keep on posting.

SF3,

..."if we all just once agreed with a way to deal with them they would be at our mercy instead of the other way around."

A 'Monopoly' on the 'future'?

Who would be 'wise' enough to decide... what to demand?

Freedom to choose our own future... make our own decisions... beats 'collective' wisdom ... especially in areas where innovation is allowed to increase efficiencies/productivity!

USSR Collective farms... were a perfect example!

I think that there is a conflict of interest when farmers want to collectively sell grain or collectively buy their inputs. I don't want to have a average price for inputs and I don't want to have an average price for grain. Let those who want to do that, do that, and those who don't buy and sell when and to whomever they want. I don't regret buying high priced fertilizer in the summer because my profits are locked in as much as they can be and that is all that we can do. Who cares if the price goes down.
