PotashCorp Overview

Agriculture Market Overview

1.Crop prices supported in the first half by strong demand, unrest in Ukraine/Russia and delayed US planting. 2.Robust planting and yields in the US led to record corn and soybean production. 3.Global crop stocks increased following two years of above-trend yields, weighing on prices. 4.Significant improvement in livestock economics and healthy ethanol sector margins. 5.Delayed planting in Brazil created some yield risk and could impact Safrinha planting prospects.
