Industry News: Mosaic Facilities Resuming Normal Operations Post-Milton

Fertilizer producer Mosaic estimates 200,000 to 250,000 tons of production were lost due to facility closures from Hurricane Milton, reports Agri-Pulse. Mosaic accounts for 73% of North American phosphate production and 40% of potash production annually.
 
But all Mosaic phosphate production sites except the Riverside location have resumed normal operations. Two potash mine sites at South Fort Meade and Four Corners still have production paused. All three facilities have plans to resume production within the next two weeks.
