# Nutrien: Third-quarter profit below forecasts — 61 cents versus 80 cents per share; potash demand remains steady

> Nutrien reported third-quarter 2026 earnings of 61 cents per share, below the analyst consensus of 80 cents. The company said global potash demand remains strong, while Brazilian farmers are delaying nitrogen fertilizer purchases because of financial constraints; it also plans to idle Florida phosphate operations in the first half of 2027.

## Why it matters

Strong potash demand supports potash prices, while weaker nitrogen buying in Brazil points to softer fertilizer demand there. Planned phosphate capacity idling could tighten phosphate supply over time.
