Fertilizer Market Overcomes Supply Chain Struggle

U.S. fertilizer markets faced major challenges in 2024. Despite these obstacles, the industry has remained resilient. “The Canadian rail strike was a real scare,” said Fertilizer Institute President and CEO Corey Rosenbush, noting the U.S. relies on Canada for 85 percent of its potash supply. Low river levels and the hurricanes that struck the Gulf area also shook the fertilizer business. “There’s always something, but we’re resilient. I think that’s the story of 2024.”
