70% of farmers say that fertilizer is now so expensive they may not be able to buy all the fertilizer that they need.
“70% of farmers say that fertilizer is now so expensive they may not be able to buy all the fertilizer that they need.” The Iran war is driving fertilizer prices even higher right now. But this crisis didn’t start with the Iran war. Farmers have been getting squeezed by rising input costs for years. The Iran war is making things worse and drawing attention to it, but it’s not the root problem. A handful of corporations still control supply and can push prices higher with little resistance. If we actually want to help farmers, we have to break that grip and build a system that doesn’t force them into dependence just to survive.
