Platts to add 'close' value for Americas ammonium nitrate price assessment

Platts, part of S&P Global Commodity Insights, will update the methodology for its Americas ammonium nitrate price assessment, effective July 1.

Platts will introduce an additional weekly "close" value in addition to the existing low and high values. Following the proposed change, the current low and high values will be standardized to $1/st above and below the assessed close value.

This assessment is currently published in the Fertecon US Fertilizer Report, and is also available on Platts Connect.

Platts originally proposed to add a close value for Americas ammonium nitrate price assessment on May 13 in a subscriber note available here(opens in a new tab).
