US potash prices rose after new tariffs on Canadian imports, with the US importing 93% of its potash and Canada supplying about 79% of imports. Analysts noted limited domestic production and no government stockpile to buffer the disruption.
Tariffs on Canadian potash remove a key low-cost supply source, pushing US fertilizer costs higher and potentially squeezing farm margins for corn and soybean growers. Higher input costs can reduce planted area or lift breakeven feed prices.
