China and India are posponing their purchase of potash for next year. They do this to drive down the price of POT. POT has closed 4 mines and sent workers home for Christmas and New Years.

Who will win the P*ssing contest? All I know is POT is down 31 % from where I bought it.

Corn still solid over $7 a bushel, so North American demand should be strong for spring. China/India will be gravy. POT at $38 is a great buy n hold, till the next contract gets announced. Smart farmers won't want to gamble their yield per acre at $7 a bushel...

Yeah Greg....I'm not dissing POT ...it is just that we have two giants trying to screw with the price. China and India are driving the price lower by postponing purchases....and POT is trying to raise the price by closing mines and sending employees home.
I like POT of course ...the world need fertilizer and the market has two huge suppliers. But the politics of food production is real crazy...never mine issues of a moral ethical nature.
Wait until water in Canada is commodified.
