Platts to discontinue three US phosphate fertilizer assessments

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

This decision is due to changes in US domestic phosphate market dynamics and trade flows.

Platts originally proposed the discontinuation of these weekly price assessments for the US phosphate market in a subscriber note published March 21, available here.

The assessments to be discontinued are:

SymbolAssessment
FDPHB04FOT Houston, Texas
FTSPA04FOT Midsouth
FMAPH04FOT Sioux City, Iowa

The last publication date for these assessments will be June 26, 2025.

These assessments are currently published in the weekly Fertecon US Market Report and Platts Connect.
