The Fertilizer Institute says it’s unclear what the effects of the Russia/Ukraine conflict will have on global fertilizer supplies.
Kathy Mathers, vice president of public affairs, says the market was already tight before the invasion and supplies are likely to get tighter especially for fall application. “Although we get significant amounts of fertilizer from Russia, at this point, much of the spring if not all of the spring fertilizer is in place.”
She tells Brownfield there are other immediate issues.
