Fertiliser prices in the EU since 2020

Quarterly price indices, 2020 = 100.

Fertiliser prices by type, EU, Q2 2026

Price indices, 2020 = 100: a value of 150 means prices 50% above their 2020 average. Letters after a figure come from Eurostat: e = estimated, p = provisional, b = break in series. Changes on a year earlier compare the same quarter of two years and are calculated by Husfarm.

Fertiliser prices per tonne of nutrient, 2025

Average farm-gate prices paid by farmers in 2025, in euro per tonne of nutrient: nitrogen (N) for nitrogen fertilisers, phosphate (P₂O₅) for superphosphate and potassium oxide (K₂O) for potash. To get a price per tonne of product, multiply by the nutrient content: EUR 1,000 per tonne of N is EUR 270 per tonne of a fertiliser with 27% N. Source: Eurostat.

By country, EUR per tonne of nutrient

Abbreviations: AS ammonium sulphate, CAN calcium ammonium nitrate, AN ammonium nitrate, UAN urea ammonium nitrate solution, SSP single superphosphate, KCl potassium chloride. The columns show the main fertilisers; the table above lists all of them.

The figures for Belgium (42% of the median), Bulgaria (23%), Greece (58%), Croatia (9%), Italy (42%), Cyprus (1.8 times), the Netherlands (11%) and Poland (40%) are not shown: they are far from the median of the other countries, which points to a different unit, such as a price per tonne of product rather than per tonne of nutrient.

p = provisional, e = estimated (Eurostat). Countries report the prices with their own surveys, so compare them with care.
