# Nutrien to close White Springs after earnings miss

> Nutrien plans to close its White Springs phosphate mine and processing operation in Florida in the June quarter of 2027, while retaining and optimizing its Aurora operation. The company said higher sulfur costs compressed phosphate margins, and it raised its 2026 potash sales guidance to 14.3–14.8 million tonnes amid continued global demand.

## Why it matters

The closure removes a source of US phosphate production, potentially tightening domestic fertilizer supply and supporting phosphate prices. Higher sulfur costs are also pressuring producer margins, while stronger potash sales guidance signals firm demand for potash.
