Fertilizer prices spiked after Hurricane Ida shut nitrogen plants on the US Gulf Coast and high European gas prices forced Yara and CF Industries to curtail output. Sanctions on Belarus potash, Chinese production and export limits, and supply chain disruptions added to the shortage.
CRU analysts say the tightness may last past the new year.
Multiple simultaneous supply losses in nitrogen, phosphate and potash raise input costs for grain and feed producers and could cut 2022 application rates. The resulting tightness supports fertilizer and grain prices.

Hurricane Ida plant shutdowns, European curtailments by Yara and CF due to gas costs, and export limits combined to tighten nitrogen supply sharply.
Ida-related nitrogen plant shutdowns plus European curtailments by Yara and CF from high gas costs, and Chinese export limits, created a multi-source supply shortage lasting past the new year.
