I knew the fertilizer suppliers for P and K were just a small group of companies, but I didn't know they had joined together for marketing their products. In the old days the DOJ would look into the possibility of collusion for price fixing, but now its look the other way, its a world economy you know. On the bright side it should put an end to fence row to fence row over-production whenever the price gets very high. Demand destruction sounds so much nicer than plain old ordinary greed.
