I remember back in the late 60s or real early 70s there was a sisal twine shortage supposedly because of a fire in Mexico. Before that, twine was around $8 a bale. Shot up over $20 that year and never came down. Dad and I went to Archbold that spring and there were stacks of 5 bales piled randomly in rows all over the sale grounds. We bought all of ours there that day. Seems like we gave about 20 for it.
As far as chemicals, they said on Ag Day this morning that glyphosate was the big one that was short.

We always give calves an e coli vaccine as soon as they're born. We couldn't get that this year. Tried a couple of big suppliers, both said they'd be out for months. It's been dry enough so far that there hasn't been any mud on the cows udders and it hasn't been a problem, but that could change overnight.
