Fertilizer prices are normalizing:
New Orleans granular urea prices, the most widely used nitrogen fertilizer, are down to $453.5 per short ton, the lowest since February 6th.
This marks a -36% decline from the mid-April peak, when prices surged to the highest since 2022 as the shutdown of the Strait of Hormuz effectively halted fertilizer shipments from the Middle East.
According to the Fertilizer Institute, countries directly affected by the Iran War account for almost half of all global urea exports.
The current decline has been driven by a sharp drop in seasonal demand, as US farmers have largely completed their spring fertilizer applications, leaving the domestic market oversupplied.
By comparison, Egypt's benchmark urea price has also plunged to ~$640.0 per short ton, the lowest since late February, though it remains significantly above US prices.
The fertilizer shock is easing.
