How much have fertilizers increased 2022

Este contenido se publicó originalmente aquí by Paola Ochoa, for AgTools.

Fertilizer prices have risen nearly 30% since the start of 2022 following last year’s 80% surge. Soaring prices are driven by a confluence of factors, including surging input costs, supply disruptions caused by sanctions (Belarus and Russia), and export restrictions (China). Urea prices have surpassed their 2008 peaks, while phosphates and potash prices are inching closer to 2008 levels. Concerns around fertilizer affordability and availability have been amplified by the war in Ukraine.
