AVERAGE retail prices for most fertilizers continued to climb the second full week of February 2022, according to sellers surveyed by DTN. “The main question, then, is whether or not this increase is of a more lasting nature, or is the increase a temporary phenomenon?” according to a Kansas State Agricultural Economist.
“Projections call for continued high prices for all fuel sources and, consequently, fertilizer products,” said John Hewlett, farm management specialist with the University of Wyoming Extension Service. Hewlett has developed two Web-based computer programs to help producers make more informed decisions. Agricultural producers interested in trying the free software may access it at RightRisk.org/Analytics. Additional information on fertilizer recommendations and application rates are available via links to the fertilizer software or call the local county extension office.
