StoneX data shows Brazilian farmers' fertilizer purchases for the first half of 2023 reached only 41% of expected volume by November 2022, the slowest pace since 2020. Purchases for the second half of 2023 stood at 17%, also below prior years.
Delayed Brazilian buying due to high interest rates and expectations of further price declines reduces near-term fertilizer demand. Importers may face price pressure if buying resumes late.
