$405 per tonne 28% delivered and paid now in February, Southern Ontario. What is potash going for in Southern Ontario or elsewhere in the country.
ReplyDeleteWas just quoted $1150 per tonne for 0-0-60, went up $250 this past week!!!!!!! in Northeast Sask. Looks like I may have to shop around or just forget about potash in my blend. So if the mines can't sell it, might as well charge the hell out of the stuff that does get used. Anyone else get a wild number like this, or am I getting smoke blown up my backside??

anyone have any low prices quoted for 11-51 picked up at the plants (redwater and so on,) i was told the colonies are buying it for 600 aton picked up there
ReplyDeletelocal retailer is over 850 ton, to bad we could not buy straight from the wholsaler, lot of money to be saved
You might want to try working through your retail to use your trucks to pick up product. It has been done. Sometimes liscencing issues come up, but you could save trucking charges at least Retailers might play ball with you this way if they don't have to touch the product and they make a bit of margin(?) Can't hurt to try if you have storage, trucks and a large enough volume! Wholesaler are not saints however, just ask any dealer who was advised to fill his bins in August and now gets hung out to dry by the wholesaler. "buyer beware" has taken on a whole new meaning for a lot of players in the fertilizer business.
ReplyDeleteYour retailer might tell you he was advised to fill his bins at a specific time, but, they have minds of their own and make their own decisions to buy from wholesalers. Timing was the key for everyone this year whether it be us farmers or retailers.
ReplyDeleteIn order to better understand the fertilizer price changes over time and across regions, the following table presents the monthly average prices in Ontario, MB, SASK and Alberta based on all posted prices in this website. The urea prices increased from December 2008 to January 2009 in all provinces. Phosphate and potash prices decreased from December 2008 to January 2009 in the prairie provinces but not in Ontario.

Good point re dealers having there own minds. Good luck and good management can be interchangeable sometimes. The point I was hoping to make was wholesale fertilizer companies marketed to dealers and some dealers were caught buying at market top. "Business is business", "Buyer Beware" and "sh#t runs down hill" or what ever other clique I can come up with. I think someone (many farmers) was going to get burned in this market drop, no matter who was moving the fertilizer, manufacturer, wholesaler or retailer
ReplyDeleteCalgary, AB - Febr.11, direct payment, pick up Spring

Have anyone heard that Cargill is refunding some fertlizer price, or any other retailer. I heard that, so i was wardering if it is a rumor or not.
ReplyDeletecargill refunding... i heard that when guys were buying nh3 in fall and price was still increasing that if the fertilizer was not used it would be returned at the purchase price, not because cargill is so nice, but because they expected prices to increase further and they wanted to re-sell the same product in spring for more money
ReplyDeleteFirst I've heard of a programed refund out there. I'm guessing some deals have been made with customers on smaller/indivdual scale, but nothing that sounds like the cargill one. It would seem logical that they have inventory or have hedged price somehow to protect themselves if there are returns? Or the return amount could be a small enough %% that it's impact would be minimal in a price drop and a nice bump if it goes up? Acutually not bad marketing by cargill, it gives the farmer a bit of insurance/options if he does not get product in the ground, and now cargill gets a "pr" boost by taking a bit of product back(?)
ReplyDeleteWe have booked/paid for all our liquid fert and have on farm storage. Deliveries are running behind and it is only Feb! Could be very interesting for getting deliveries if it is a rushed spring season!
ReplyDeleteits all going south!! and they say no credit in the states
ReplyDeleteanyone know how to make liquid potash?
ReplyDeleteAnyone hearing that Pionner is repricing 28 0 0?
ReplyDeleteOur family has been buying 28 from them for years and years. I have asked them many times if they are repricing fert. They and other dealers have told me no,the makers refuse. I heard Alfonse laudin saying they repriced him $60 a tonne on tank fill.
Anyone else in the same boat getting nothing?
What about all the rest of us?
Pioneer can stick it.
Tired of getting ripped off.

JP, I agree, tired of getting ripped off, which location you deal with? Bought all my 28-0-0 as well, and had to argue about the rebate on it as i heard the same thing.
