Potash and phosphate-based fertilizers remain mostly unaffected, but nitrogen-based fertilizers that rely on natural gas are the problem. Global urea and ammonia supplies are already being hit hard. #fertilizer #foodsupply #geopolitics

With the closure of the Strait of Hormuz and disruptions to global trade routes, the world is facing a major fertilizer crisis that could trigger serious food and energy shortages. Without nitrogen-based fertilizers, planting seasons will be severely affected. The world is heading toward a famine, driven by a deliberately engineered collapse. We discuss this and more with HealthRanger.

💢 A “food security timebomb” is unfolding, the IRC warns, as disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz threaten global fertilizer supplies. The Guardian reports: 🔸 Roughly half of global food production depends on synthetic fertilizer. Prices are already rising, with benchmark urea up more than 60%. 🔸 About one-third of globally traded fertilizer raw materials pass through Hormuz, along with key inputs like ammonia, sulphur, and nitrogen. 🔸 Qatar’s QAFCO, which supplies 14% of global urea, has been offline for weeks after strikes, tightening supply. 🔸 The disruption risks driving up costs for staples like bread, rice, and animal feed, with poorer countries most exposed. 🎥 David Miliband, the president and CEO of the International Rescue Committee (IRC) on Sky News.

We are working every day on solutions to address the rising costs of fertilizer. Bottom line: we cannot rely on the foreign supply of fertilizers from adversarial nations like Russia and China. We need to reshore and bolster domestic fertilizer production to secure national farm independence. Here’s what we’ve already done: ✅ Added phosphate & potash to the 2025 Critical Minerals List ✅ Suspended the Jones Act for 60 days ✅ Expanded fertilizer exports from Venezuela ✅ Eliminated Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) requirements ✅ Working with great American companies like CF who are deferring maintenance to keep costs as low as possible ✅ Working to make fertilizer production permitting easier And there is so much more to do! #FarmSecurityIsNationalSecurity

Everyone is talking about oil prices. Nobody is talking about the rest. Seven things are being blocked in the Strait of Hormuz right now. Oil. Gas. Phosphate. Ammonium. Sulfur. Urea. Helium. Four of those are fertilizers. No fertilizers. No food. One is used for semiconductors. No semiconductors. No AI. JP Morgan says: The world runs out of oil by mid-April. This isn't an energy crisis. It's a food crisis. It's a technology crisis. It's everything at once.

$200 oil will plunge the world into a global recession. Iran just threatened to cut off the Strait of Hormuz completely, and Goldman Sachs, Bank of America, and Macquarie all say it's now a real possibility. Here's what that does to your life: Gas hits $7 a gallon in the U.S., shattering every record. But that's just the start. Oil powers the tractors, the fertilizers, the trucks that move your food from field to shelf. A third of the world's fertilizer trade passes through Hormuz and it's already been cut off. Urea prices are up 50%. U.S. fertilizer supply dropped to 75% of normal levels right at planting season. Less fertilizer means less corn. Higher prices for everything the American food system touches. At $200 oil, this stops being a Middle East problem and becomes everyone's problem. Source: BusinessBasicsYT

In Russia, an attack has reportedly targeted one of Europe’s largest phosphate fertilizer plants A fire broke out at the Apatit in Cherepovets, Vologda region. The cause is reported to be a drone strike on the facility. The plant is one of the major producers of ammonia and nitrate fertilizers, materials that can also be used in the production of explosives and gunpowder.

CNN: CNN independently took the sample of water and consulted with the pool store that regularly tests water to help read the results. It showed phosphate levels far higher than what is recommended to keep algae at bay, based on estimates for a pool that holds 6.5 million gallons of water. “If there's already some phosphate fertilizer in the water, that's really opportunistic, especially for the blue green algae that can fix nitrogen. So they are having a field day out here.”

This hypothesis suggests the Red Pyramid produced aqueous ammonia, while the Bent Pyramid processed its byproducts. By combining ammonia with carbon dioxide, it could create solid fertilizers like ammonium bicarbonate or urea ....far easier to store, transport, and apply to crops than liquid solutions. Geoffrey The Land Of Chem describes, in this model, the pyramids function as linked chemical systems, not isolated monuments, turning gases and liquids into usable agricultural fertilizer.

🚨 FOOD CRISIS ALERT 🚨 This is NOT about fertilizer anymore… this is about GLOBAL FOOD SUPPLY COLLAPSE. • Europe urea production ↓ 3.5 MT • China export bans → 5.5 MT gone • Strait of Hormuz disruption → 13.5 MT wiped out • Middle East war choking gas → fertilizer plants shutting And now? 🇮🇳 India’s urea plants are cutting output as LNG dries up (India Manufacturing Review) ⚠️ What happens next: ❌ Farmers CUT fertilizer use ❌ Crop yields DROP ❌ Sowing decisions change ❌ Food production SHRINKS 📉 Less fertilizer = LESS FOOD Wheat. Rice. Corn. Soybean. ALL at risk. Even a 10–20% fertilizer cut can slash yields sharply 🔥 This is how it spirals: Fertilizer shortage → Lower yields → Supply shock → Food inflation → Panic And we are heading straight into kharif season. 💥 The scary part? Over 30% of global fertilizer trade flows through Hormuz — now disrupted (Reuters) China is restricting exports. Russia is banning shipments. Supply chains are BREAKING. 🚨 This is not price inflation… This is FOOD AVAILABILITY RISK If this continues: 👉 Lower harvests 👉 Export bans 👉 Empty shelves in vulnerable regions ⚠️ Watch fertilizers. Because when fertilizers collapse… Food collapses next.
