15:35 EST - While the nitrogen fertilizer industry has been
rolling in profits, thanks to increasing corn acreage and low
natural gas costs, a resulting boom in nitrogen production capacity
could be starting to alter the market's dynamic. A longstanding
correlation between urea nitrogen fertilizer and corn prices broke
down last summer as corn prices surged, says Keith Swanson, a
fertilizer risk manager for CHS Hedging. "We might be at the point
globally where some of this supply is catching up to demand," he
tells farmers at a Chicago conference. Swanson adds there are eight
large-scale nitrogen plant projects in the works in the US, but
says "no one really expects all of these to be built."
