Josh Linville with StoneX Group says phosphate costs have been a concern. “The phosphate market started out high and it’s just gradually gotten a little bit higher as we go through the spring season.

And, Linville says nitrogen has been on a rollercoaster this year. “We’re on an upswing right now. Anhydrous just kind of is what anhydrous is. Its price continues to fly up a little bit as demand continues to walk in the door, but UAN is the biggest worry point that we have.”

He says UAN supplies are very tight and could get more problematic down the road.
