Build the index by adding what you paid
Report your last fertiliser purchase (grade, tonnage and price) and see instantly whether you paid above or below the field. The index is built to learn from the market it serves: as farmers add what they paid, those reports become one more signal in the daily forecast. Free, and no supplier ever sees who you are.
Common questions
- Are these fertiliser prices per ton or per tonne?
- Per metric tonne, which is 1,000 kilograms. UK fertiliser is bought and sold by the tonne, so every figure on this site is in pounds per tonne. If you are working in US short tons, one tonne is about 1.102 short tons, so £500 per tonne is roughly £454 per short ton. You will also see the spelling "fertilizer" in North American sources: it means the same thing as "fertiliser".
- How current are these prices?
- The forecast for each grade is recalculated daily, and each page shows the date its figure was produced.
- Can I buy at these prices?
- No. These are indicative estimates of the going UK market rate, not quotations. What you pay depends on load size, haulage distance, timing and payment terms. The index exists so that when a quote arrives you have an independent number to measure it against.
- Where does the daily price come from?
- It is produced every day by our forecasting model, and the model is re-validated continuously against weekly UK market prints: a grade publishes a modelled figure only while it beats a naive hold-the-last-price baseline on months it has never seen. The shaded band around the line on the chart is the confidence range of the estimate.
