This Outlook report has been produced in Q4 of 2021 at a time when an unprecedented escalation in fertiliser prices has taken place. There is considerable uncertainty as to whether fertiliser prices will remain at elevated levels for the duration of the 2022 production season. The escalation in fertiliser prices makes it difficult to anticipate the level of fertiliser production. Furthermore, it raises questions about the level of fertiliser usage, fertiliser expenditure, farm output and farm profitability in 2022. Therefore, it is necessary to set out assumptions in relation to the fertiliser price and farmer response to these price changes for 2022.
