So who’s filling their diesel tanks with what’s going on. Thoughts? 3-4 cents covers the spread from burning winter fuel in summer time …

Any of you keeners know how you might think this whole Ukraine deal will affect fertilizer prices? I'm wondering because I have no idea but do farmers still plant or harvest crops in a country when another country is invading them or do they just hunker down? Ukraine is a player in the global grain markets.

Was told 1.50 a litre even if i take a triaxle worth couldnt even gurantee me that price

Wow , no offence your getting the shaft I’d be shopping around. Ordered 10,000 gal today 1.16

I know a guy should have filled up the tanks last fall when it was under a buck just like ordering the gly when it was 8 should have bought a super b load not just 10 totes worth

Ukraine has the best soil in the world.

I got all my fertilizer pricing locked now. If the price crashes near seeding time I’m going to feel like a total idiot.

Ukraine is a big producer of flax so I’m switching some canola acres to flax.

We locked ours in about a month ago. It got to the point where there was a concern We wouldn’t be able to get any at all if we waited any longer. Nephew has pre ordered and taking possession of all our herbicides as well as rumours of shortages there as well.

Picture is price of wheat in 2008 adjusted for inflation, and I think the supply crunch is worse right now.
Black hole created by undelivered Ukrainian March contracts.
