1255 ET - Prices for the types of fertilizers used by farmers are climbing, according to DTN in its latest weekly report. The research firm says that of the eight types of fertilizer ingredients it tracks, four types had higher prices this week, two were unchanged, and two saw prices decrease--but remain on the high-end of where they've been over the past year. In the U.S., fertilizer prices are among the main input costs for farmers, along with things like land rent or taxes and seed costs. On an earnings call last month, Nutrien CEO Ken Seitz said the company expects the record-sized crops harvested this fall will require more fertilizer to replenish soil nutrients on farmland.
