# A Rebound in Agriculture? | Morningstar

> Morningstar analyst Seth Goldstein says 2019 was a difficult year for agriculture, with flooded US fields cutting planted acres to a decade low. Lower acreage and weak palm oil prices in Southeast Asia reduced potash demand. He expects a US acreage rebound and palm oil recovery in 2020, and possible potash price gains from recent production cuts.

## Why it matters

Expected acreage recovery and tighter supply from cuts would support potash demand and prices in 2020. The outlook is a forecast, not a new supply or demand event.
