Fertilizer Market, Volatility, & Transportation Issues

What are the challenges facing the fertilizer market in 2023?  On this episode of The High Ground, powered by Premier Companies, somewhat special guests Scott Sharp and Jeff Jarrett join hosts Ryan Priest and Sal Sama in the podcast room.  Scott is the VP of Crop Nutrients and Operations, and Jeff is the VP of Fertilizer Procurement and Operations.

Scott, Jeff, Sal, and Ryan touch on challenges we’re dealing with in 2023 including logistical issues, geopolitical issues around the world, and low water conditions on the Mississippi River.  They’ll also cover some of the reasons Premier is positioned to keep customers supplied despite transportation, logistical issues, volatile nitrogen markets, and the global reliance on Russian potash.  “You don’t sell all your grain in one day.  Doesn’t mean you gotta buy your fertilizer all in one day.”
