If you’ve noticed an uptick in fertilizer prices, despite being out of the high-demand spring season, you’re not alone. According to Josh Linville, vice president of fertilizer at StoneX, prices are currently higher than normal across the board for fertilizers – a trend he attributes to multiple global factors.
“These products are all very world-driven,” he says. “We don’t always set the tone or the price – the rest of the world can do that.”

2. High Costs in Brazil
3. China’s Restrictions
4. Supply Shortage in Egypt
5. Import Restrictions
