DTN's October survey found seven of eight major US fertilizers rose in price, with UAN28 up 6% to $447 per ton, anhydrous ammonia averaging $987 per ton and potash at $506 per ton. All eight fertilizers are more expensive than a year ago, with anhydrous up 17% and urea up 13%.
Rising input costs squeeze US farm margins and may shift acreage or feed cost structures, while confirming a firm nitrogen and potash cost base heading into the 2027 season.
After 76 past bullish report events, Urea moved a median 0.0% over 5 sessions (49% higher; middle half -2.2% to +2.9%), and -0.3% over 20.
