Everyone can stop worrying about the effen flu now

Only just got home and hearing about this so don't know what's happening, but wow if Putin goes full attack mode into Dnipro and Kyiv... it could get ugly fast. Agree with TJ that cheering on war is sick, but you gotta admit it's morbidly fascinating if you've studied European history a bit. Putin is one formidable dude, that's for sure.

Lying about other posters is not on Red

 what happened there?

Been watching this enfold all morning  apologies Stayer , I just blew up .

Red lying? No? I don't believe it 

This situation has clear and serious geo-political implications, even if some around here (or maybe just one) consider non-European nations should keep out of the diplomatic comment, discussion and debate.

And what are they, SC? Admittedly I didn't imagine Putin would invade major cities, if he has. That has shocked me. If it's true.

stayer, the fertiliser increase, especially urea & super, has huge repercussions for us! Many are making great inroads using sustainable methods but not the 90% of traditionalists who because of sustained use, are needing to add more & more to get similar yields to 40odd years ago.
Chinese sanctions aren't helping either!

Costs and supply of a lot of products used in agriculture have been going up since about the middle of last year, fertilisers, pesticides, fungicides and herbicides are all jumping, just as an example a 1000L container of Glyphosate has jumped recently from around the $4k mark to over $12k, also some products are becoming harder to supply, global shipping is also quite tricky at the moment and isn't helping supply chain issues, other industries are also have issues, as anyone trying to build a house over the past 12 months will no doubt be aware.
