Fertilizer Market Warning 2027: Trouble Is Building
from What the Futures! · host Ryan Denis
Fertilizer prices, phosphate supply, and 2027 crop planning are already becoming major questions for farmers. In this Tuesday Cuppa Coffee livestream from What the Future’s Podcast, Ryan Denis is joined by Josh Linville of StoneX to break down the fertilizer market, including phosphate, potash, urea, China, the Strait of Hormuz, and whether farmers should lock in fall fertilizer or keep waiting. Josh explains why North America made it through spring 2026 better than some feared, why global fertilizer supplies are still tight, and what could cause phosphate prices to finally break lower. Ryan also covers canola, wheat, soybeans, oats, Prairie seeding delays, U.S. planting progress, and why farmers may need to “play financial defense” while markets are offering stronger pricing opportunities.
