[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 675912, member: 4362"] The reason is homeland security regulations. This affects everything from trucking to having to have a six foot tall fence around the fertilizer facility AND keep a time log of when, where and how the ammonium nitrate was applied. It is illegal for the driver of the spreader truck to stop anywhere between point A and B. This only affects the larger fertilizer companies who excede a certain size. Thankfully, we still have some small guys who are not subject to these rules and will still spread it but they do have to use certain truckers to haul it thus driving up the cost. I guess this is to protect us as it must be impossible to buy enough bags of ammonium nitrate to actually blow something up. :roll: [/QUOTE]
