Fertilizer Concerns Lift Corn -- Market Talk

Dow Jones03-19

1109 ET - CBOT corn futures are up 0.8%, leading the row crop complex higher as natural gas futures surge. Fertilizer is the key concern among traders, with corn the most exposed to higher fertilizer costs because it's a nutrient-intensive crop. Analytics provider DTN says urea and anhydrous ammonia prices jumped by 12% and 7%, respectively, from this time last month, as energy-producing infrastructure in the Middle East comes under attack. Natural gas is essential for producing nitrogen-based fertilizers. Soybeans are getting less support, because they generally use less fertilizer than corn, says Doug Bergman of RCM Alternatives in a note. (kirk.maltais@wsj.com)
