# US Wholesale Fertilizer Prices Seen Mostly Steady in Short Term

> DTN's wholesale fertilizer review reports that international ammonia prices recovered through December 2016 on reduced merchant supply from major exporters. Black Sea ammonia was tight after lower output at Togliattiazot, and the Yara-Mosaic US contract settled at $250/mt cfr for January, up $25. The column expects wholesale prices to stay mostly steady in the near term.
