Nutrien warns tariffs will hurt U.S. farmers who rely on Canadian potash

Ken Seitz, the CEO of Nutrien Ltd., warned that American farmers will face challenges if tariffs are applied to Canadian potash imports, emphasizing their reliance on Canada for this essential input.
Nutrien reports that Canada supplies over 80 percent of the potash used by U.S. Farms, which is vital for agriculture.
Implementing these tariffs could lead to a 25 percent increase in prices for farmers on Canadian imports, significantly impacting their costs.
The Fertilizer Institute urged the U.S. Administration to exempt Canadian potash from tariffs to support farmers, noting the approaching spring planting season.
