(NAFB.com) – The Farmers Business Network issued its annual crop protection market report, highlighting its outlook for pricing and supply trends. “There’s a lot of uncertainty going into 2026, and you can contrast that to 2025, where tariffs were mostly known going into spring,” said John Appel, FBN vice president of category management. “2026 is going to be structurally very different.” He also said that at certain points in 2025, product prices were at multi-year lows, so there was no more room to go down. He said now that the channel is largely depleted, “We know that, structurally, these tariffs are going to come into place from a cost perspective.” FBN anticipates the pricing for glyphosate and glufosinate coming from China rising because of a 20 percent tariff. “Others like 2,4-D, you have significant duties on products like that, and on top of that, countervailing and anti-dumping duties could be up to 170 percent,” he added.
