Yara says fertilizer prices are rising across nitrogen, phosphate and potassium products. It attributes the increases to higher gas and sulphuric and phosphoric acid costs, container shortages and a long-running raw material shortage.
It also cites high grain prices, a late cold spring in Western Europe, and drought in North America.
Rising gas costs and tight raw materials are lifting nitrogen, phosphate and potash prices, which raises feed-grain production costs and keeps buyers' input costs elevated into the new season.
