DTN's retail survey for the second week of November 2020 found mixed fertilizer prices in the US. Urea averaged $358/ton, down $1 from last month, while DAP rose $9 to $454/ton and is now close to its 2019 level.
CF Industries expects US corn plantings of 90 million acres in 2021, with higher wheat and canola acres.
