The first quarter results from a survey of Ohio retail fertilizer prices showed prices were varied when compared to the national averages reported by Progressive Farmer – DTN (Quinn, 2025). The survey was completed by 16 retailers, representing 13 counties, who do business in the state of Ohio. Respondents were asked to quote spot prices as of the first day of the quarter (January 1st) based on sale type indicated. This is part of a larger study conducted by OSU Extension to better understand local fertilizer prices, which began in December 2023.
