Platts proposes to discontinue three US phosphate fertilizer assessments

Platts, part of S&P Global Commodity Insights, proposes to discontinue three US phosphate price assessments, effective July 1, 2025.

This proposal is based on a review of US domestic phosphate market dynamics and trade flows, and a focus on key fertilizer-producing and consuming regions.

The assessments proposed for discontinuation are:
