I say bare minimum for food is ten p/u...
I refuse to sell any lower, as i do have to make profit otherwise can`t afford a fleet to engage and expand...
I make nothing compaired to a tax empire, however have cheaper upkeep for collective ships but it`s crab for other races ships)...
As this is a problem, not making enough profit, it effects expansion!!
So listenup, all those who are agri...
A rich collective = expanding collective = more food on the market supplied = more competition to sell
=/=
cheaper food = less profit = less expansion
I think 10 p/u should be the minimum....
We do not underpost 10p/u under no circumstances as the profit margin compaired to other incomes styles e.g. tax/comm is crab...
Agri Empires, Listen up!!! RT

Even with food under 10 you make profit, so stop crying uh? i stop making cash after 36 *rolleyes*
Glad, we`ve made it clear :D
No posting food under 10 p/u
/signed
If you have to, e.g. need money urgently, sell it and contact all those who are collectives/or agri empires that you know of to buy it up before a tax empire gets it...
This is all, simply we sell no lower than 10, and do not cut under 10 no matter what... That way all our food doesnt get bought up cheap and stockpiled... Which is a disaster for us agri empires...
After this has been in place, we can work at rising the minimum market price, to 13 p/u... which again is acceptable and people will buy and we will get 13 p/u because there won`t be an alternative :D :D :D

need someone to buy all the food at 10 and 11 hehe
Yes I know i make a tidy profit at £13 thats why I prefer to sell at higher prices, its simple demand economics, your willing to buy more at lower prices and we are willing to sell more at higher prices.
At £10 per unit we make £1bn per 100m food...at £13 per unit we make 1.3bn per 100m thats the maths, how does wanting to make the most I can out of my food make me look a fool, especially when people are still willing to buy?

@ 13 an agri terran is making quite a bit more money than a tax viral.
10 is considered an acceptable price for virals, at least. A.Miners can pretty buy for anything they want. Some virals will buy as high as 12, or even higher in need (I know I was buying at 18 - 19 at one point, but that was building to take down asmodai. Buying at 18 fleetless and I`m losing money.)
Like Islander said. Do the math before you make yourself look like a fool. :P

I`d be willing to sell at anything above $10 aiming mostly for around 13 per unit...I genrally stock when it goes to 10.
Tax virals aren`t making much at 15, that`s a rather high price.
8-10 is the normal range, and at 10 agri is nearly always more profitable than every other income type except tax.
The profit margin for agri FAR EXCEEDS that of comm. Learn the g`dam game before you post.

10~12 is decent amount for food for both sides of the equation i think
Hi. Small tax empire here. I eat only 350k food per turn. It is not worth it to buy food over $20. In fact, I was in heaven when Fodderman pushed the price lower and lower a month or two ago ($4-8 per unit).
From a consumer stand point (none of what I am saying really matters), I wouldn`t mind buying food at Vamp`s proposed nothing under $10 as long as the price remained in the $10-12 range.

Supply and demand dictate the market, it would take too much comunication between agri empires to change that.
