# US farm suppliers expect potash to hold and phosphate to slump as growers run short of cash | Agro News Today

> Retailers told CropLife that the main risk for US fertilizer this autumn is farmer affordability rather than supply. Potash is expected to hold steady on plentiful Canadian supply, and nitrogen should sell well with more than 95 million acres of corn planted. Phosphate applications may fall to about 60% of two years ago.

## Why it matters

Lower phosphate application points to softer US DAP demand this season. Potash and nitrogen demand look more stable, so those prices should hold near current levels.
