As a fourth-generation farmer, I understand the challenges growers face with unpredictable input costs. That’s why I helped introduce the Fertilizer Transparency Act – to ensure we have access to timely, accurate information about fertilizer prices and markets. I joined managers of Nutrien Ag Solutions to tour their facility in East Chain last week, discuss recent fertilizer costs, and learn more about their crop consultant work for Minnesota farmers.

Great presentation today at the @MnCropRetailers Short Course by @NutrienAgRetail Science Fellow & Principal Atmospheric Scientist @snodgrss on how high-impact weather events influence global agriculture productivity! @ag_weather
