Genesis Fertilizers notes the Canadian dollar kept weakening against the USD at the end of October, which raises the value of Canadian farm exports but increases the cost of imported fertilizer and equipment. The report also notes the St. Lawrence Seaway strike has been resolved and cargo is moving again, and summarizes the India urea tender settled at 1.7 million tonnes.
A weaker loonie lifts the local-currency cost of imported fertilizer for Canadian buyers, while the end of the Seaway strike restores grain and input logistics.
