#21 What is with this weather?
Thursday Dec 19, 2019
Thursday Dec 19, 2019
Everyone in agriculture follows the weather, including the Mecardo team. We are however not experts in that field, and we often have discussions with our friend Dr David Stephens of Agro Meteorology. We wanted to pick his brains on why this year has been so poor for the majority of the country.
Topics covered include:
- The drivers of the last years weather and what caused it to be so bad.
- The creation of models to forecast weather
- His research into weather patterns moving due to changes in climatic conditions.

On Mecardo we recently provided an update on the fertilizer market. As one of the biggest input costs on farm, it's important to keep a close eye on the market.
We were asked for more information from a numbers of premium subscribers, it was therefore an opportune time to call in one of our analyst friends from the UK.
Andrew Whitelaw (Mecardo) and Chris Lawson (CRU) sat down for a chat about the fertilizer market and what is means for Australian prices.
