One of the largest customers of our local fuel co-op talked about switching suppliers; it got them talking better.
The consensis here for ag inputs, whether to patronize the co-op or private dealer here locally, is to shop at both and split your business. This will keep both suppliers solvent and stay in business; to avoid monopoly pricing should the other fold.
