Survey - How's your Fertiliser experience been in 2023? - It's been an interesting time to buy Fertiliser. There was a lack of demand earlier in the year when the forecast was for a dry season, and then for some, things turned around, and demand increased and far outweighed supply.

There has been frustration from the trade and Farmers alike, which has led to an industry void of a reliable information flow for all participants.

In other words, both parties are kept in the dark from each other. 

Farmers want to have better access to more accurate prices and availability. And the trade wants the Farmers to outline their requirements so they can supply more accurately and perhaps give a better price.
