Hurricane Ida, with 150 mph winds, crippled grain shipping facilities along the lower Mississippi River, including the Port of South Louisiana, which handles more than 50% of US grain exports. The storm left the timeline for resuming export activity unclear.
A barge urea price in New Orleans rose from $450/t to $552/t after the storm, and grain markets fell sharply on export uncertainty.
Shuttered Gulf export capacity disrupts US grain and soybean shipments, pressuring US cash prices while raising barge freight and fertilizer costs. Feed buyers should watch for a longer outage, which would widen basis and increase logistics costs.
