[QUOTE="apical meristem, post: 898786, member: 8891"] People who are grass farmers think that by grazing they are detatching themselves from the price of corn. Acutally though, this is not so. Fertilizer follows the price of corn and not the price of natural gas. If ammonia or urea (N) followed natural gas, fertilizer would be cheap. (Nitrogen is synthesized from natural gas.) Obviously last time I checked the price of N it was not cheap. So the cost of any fertilized forage should follow the price of corn. [/QUOTE]
