Last week, I picked up a ton of Antlermax from my supplier. Looked at the invoice, took a nitroglycerin pill and wrote a check. After staggering back to my truck, I opened my checkbook again and flipped back a few pages. This same week a year ago, I also bought a ton of the same feed from the same dealer. 50% price increase in 12 months! Now that got me to thinking. Primary ingredient is corn.but when I checked the cash price of corn....19% less than this day last year!

The way things are going these days, I think it's called "because I can get away with it".
If you can't laugh at yourself, give me a call. I'll gladly laugh at you.

Price of fuel counters corn reduction  + the “I can get away with it” + “maybe charge more to cover lower margins in the future”. You could speculate last years harvest had a delayed impact from the rising cost of fuel. Just my thoughts, but one thing is for certain, it ain’t coming back down anytime soon.
