The potash sector faced a number of headwinds in 2023, leading to volatility in fertilizer prices for much of the year.

The World Bank expects fertilizer prices to average lower in 2024 and 2025 compared to 2023, while remaining well above the lows of 2015 to 2019 due to strong demand and supply constraints such as export restrictions from China and sanctions on Belarus, two of the largest potash producing countries.

Potash markets during the first half of the year were defined by increasing demand from the three biggest consumers, Brazil, China and India, while supply has remained ample to ensure prices remained relatively low.

Meanwhile, phosphate during the same period has been impacted by increasing demand from North American markets and restricted supply from China which continues to be the world’s largest producer.
