    CRU Webinar On Demand: Fertilizer Constraints Amid Ongoing Conflict

    Written by Natalie Noor-Drugan


    Straight Talk: How High Can Fertilizer Prices Go?

    CRU’s fertilizer and raw materials experts examine mounting market pressures in a newly available on-demand webinar, Straight Talk: Fertilizer Constraints Compound as Conflict Lingers. The one-hour session is now free to access for registered viewers.

    The webinar covers the key questions preoccupying the market right now. Speakers address whether fertilizer prices are nearing new records, which Gulf producers are still operating and moving product, and how China’s export stance — protectionism or pragmatism — is shaping global supply.

    A dedicated segment on sulphuric acid explores the tug-of-war between fertilizer and metals demand, a dynamic that has grown increasingly relevant as raw material competition intensifies.

    Expert Panel

    The session features Chris Lawson, VP of Market Intelligence & Prices at CRU, who leads a team of 30 fertilizer analysts globally. He is joined by Peter Harrisson (Principal Analyst, Sulphur & Sulphuric Acid), Brendan Daly (Senior Analyst, Fertilizer Value Chain), Pranshi Goyal (Analyst, Urea Market Service), Lewis Walters (Analyst, Fertilizer Value Chain), and Willis Thomas, Head of CRU+.
