Oil prices affecting fertilizer trade
Ip NEW YORK, N.Y. -
Substantial increases in
world oil'prices next year
could be devastating to the
current fertilizer price
structure, but should not
result in a reduction of
fertilizer use, an industry
spokesman said recently.
President of The Fertilizer
Institute, Edwin M. Wheeler,
told the fourth World Fer
tilizer Conference here that
there is “growing anxiety”
among fertilizer producers
and farmers over increased
energy and transportation
costs.

1,000 industry represen
tatives from more than 40
nations, Wheeler said
production costs, largely
impelled by energy prices,
have been “rapidly
escalating” at the rate of 15-
20 per cent each year and
freight charges alone have
risen nearly 19 percent.
Ocean-going rates, he added,
have gone up 35 par cent and
beyond.
U.S. farmers’ anxiety over
increasing prices, however,
is not expected to result in a
cutback in rates of ap
plication, Wheeler predic
ted.
“Based on early indicators
plus farmers’ spendable
income, one would be led to
forecast the brightest-ever
demand for U.S. nutrient
material,” he said.
The 1 reason for his op
timism, he explained, hinged
on pre-plant ammonia
demand for fall wheat
seeding and the sharp drop
in UJS. inventories of fer
tilizer. He expects nutrient
producers to earn a
“reasonable” return on their
investments during the
coming year.
