Scottish farm advisers report that cattle farmyard manure nutrient levels can exceed standard reference values, with one August 2026 sample showing especially high potassium content. The article also notes that imported ammonium nitrate and triple superphosphate prices have risen 20% and 22%, respectively, since the Middle East conflict began, while muriate of potash prices have remained stable.
Higher imported fertiliser costs strengthen the incentive to use and test farmyard manure, potentially reducing some farmers’ demand for purchased nutrients. The reported price increases are supportive for TSP and other affected fertilisers, though the article gives no direct market price for ammonium nitrate in the listed commodity set.
