What’s Driving Ag Markets Right Now?

As we head into planting, one thing is top of mind for everyone in agriculture—the economy. What’s really driving the markets, and what’s the outlook as we head into the field? In this episode, Mike Howell sits down with Nutrien Chief Economist and Head of Market Research, Jason Newton, to help break down what’s happening today. From recent movement in crop prices to global supply and demand, they dig into the factors shaping today’s market environment and explore how small shifts can make an impact throughout the growing season. They discuss the current state of fertilizer markets, from global urea supplies and prices to phosphate demand and supplies, and how ongoing conflicts in the Middle East are impacting natural gas prices and input markets.
