question
questionI would really appreciate a response from anyone who can help...
If grain harvests are poor, does this mean Viterra's earnings would suffer? It appears that a global food shortage is a distinct possibility this year due to many factors (low sunspot activity, wet weather, extremely late plantings, etc.).
I am very confident investing in fertilizer companies (AGU being my favourite) as many farmers are taking a huge gamble not fertilizing their fields. These nutrients absolutely positively must be replaced for the health of the soil. Silly, silly farmers...a real botch up. Crop yields could be disastrous this year.
Thanks in advance.
