Well I don't think the price of fertilizer has anything to do with the price you pay for feed. The increase in the price of fertilizers comes out of the farmers pocket, not the consumers. The share of the cost that the farmer get's out of a bag of feed is less than 10%. So 100% increase in the price of grain would only change the price you pay for feed by an additional 10 %. With grain up only 15 to 20 % that ends up only being less than $1 a bag. the real cost of feed is shipping, bagging and corporates prophet. Companies use the cost of grain as an excuse to raise prices because everyone believes it is the reason, but it is just an excuse to make more money for the corporations. Sorry for my rant.
