OMAHA (DTN) -- Average retail fertilizer prices continued to be mostly higher during the second week of November 2025, according to sellers surveyed by DTN.

Prices for six fertilizers were higher once again, while prices for the other two were slightly lower. No fertilizer had a sizeable price move, which DTN designates as anything 5% or more.

The six nutrients that were higher in price: DAP, which had an average price of $929/ton; potash $490/ton; urea $597/ton; 10-34-0 $667/ton; anhydrous $857/ton; and UAN28 $416/ton.

Two fertilizers were slightly lower looking back to the prior month. MAP had an average price of $930/ton, and UAN32 was $465/ton.

On a price per pound of nitrogen basis, the average urea price was $0.65/lb.N, anhydrous $0.52/lb.N, UAN28 $0.74/lb.N and UAN32 $0.73/lb.N.

President Donald Trump's executive order last week to amend the scope of reciprocal tariffs, which will remove duties on critical fertilizers, was met with thanks from farm organizations. Farm production and input costs continue to strain farm margins, and ensuring certain products are not affected by tariffs will reduce the cost of key fertilizers, according to news release from the American Soybean Association (ASA).

Executive Order 14257 amends the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United State by adding diammonium and monoammonium phosphates (DAP and MAP) as well as potassium chloride (potash) to the annex of products not subject to tariff duties.

"Soybean farmers are currently making difficult financial decisions as they plan for next year's planting after a harvest season full of challenges," Caleb Ragland, ASA president and Kentucky soybean farmer, said.

"Today's action by President Trump will help lower costs for one key component of soybean production. U.S. soybean farmers are grateful that the administration has acted to ensure DAP, MAP and potash will no longer face import duties."

All eight fertilizers are now higher in price compared to a year earlier: 10-34-0 by 10%; potash 11%; MAP 15%; urea 20%; anhydrous 21%; DAP 26%; UAN32 28%; and UAN28 up 29%.
