carts, it won't take till next summer to rock here. As long as the rain doesn't last as long as last year, there's no way fert sales won't be stellar. Last year was an El Nino year and extremely unusual. It is HIGHLY unlikely to have a repeat of those conditions. I'd even say impossible.
For nearly the past 10 yrs the problem was too dry weather conditions and water rationing. Last year was the first time it was too wet and it ended up being WAY too wet. This was a blessing and a curse. The reservoirs are now all above historical averages and near full. Big snow storm last week and more coming but this is December and they're used to it. As long as it lets up come Feb/March we'll be fine. I think everything that can go wrong already has gone wrong and we're still alive. 2011 will be the year everything goes right for a change. That's how it's shaping up. The planets are coming into alignment, FINALLY.
Just look how Stage 1 and silver prices have coincided. God must feel sorry for Whit and all of us. It's all coming together now.
