Tennessee is a corn, soybean, cotton, and tobacco state with the West Tennessee Plain and Tennessee Valley supporting row crop production. Anhydrous Ammonia has a modeled planning range of $945–$1,155/ton in Tennessee markets as a 2026 planning reference, reflecting Southern supply chain conditions.
| Benchmark | Price | vs. 2025 |
|---|---|---|
| NOLA barge (national reference) | $900–$1,100/ton | +15–25% |
| Tennessee co-op / distributor | $945–$1,155/ton | +20–30% |
| Tennessee retail delivered | $972–$1,188/ton | +22–32% |
Use this range to prepare questions, not to make a purchase decision. Confirm the dated source evidence and the actual local delivered quote before acting.
Tennessee receives fertilizer via Tennessee River barge and Memphis terminals; West Tennessee pricing tracks Mississippi Delta closely.
| Driver | Impact |
|---|---|
| Natural gas feedstock | Anhydrous ammonia is produced via the Haber-Bosch process; natural gas is 70–80% of production cost. Elevated global gas prices set the price floor. |
| China nitrogen export restrictions | China restricted nitrogen exports through August 2026, tightening global supply and pushing prices 20–35% above year-ago levels. |
| Domestic production capacity | U.S. plants (CF Industries, Nutrien) run near full capacity but cannot replace all import volumes. |
| Handling and safety costs | Anhydrous requires pressurized equipment and licensed handlers; logistics costs are higher than dry nitrogen products. |
Tennessee farmers typically source Anhydrous Ammonia through regional co-operatives, independent retailers, and direct distributor contracts. Compare the complete written terms of each local offer; freight, application, financing, storage, delivery window, and quote expiration can matter as much as the headline price.
