| Maine co-op / distributor | $17–$24/gallon | +33–43% |

| Driver | Impact |
|---|---|
| Chinese generic production | China dominates global glyphosate API production; U.S. tariff policy determines import costs. |
| Tariff uncertainty | U.S.-China tariff changes in 2025–2026 added 10–25% landed cost variability on imported generics. |
| Generic vs. branded pricing | Generic 41% AI is functionally identical to branded Roundup; 30–40% cost savings available. |
| Resistance management costs | Glyphosate-resistant weeds force higher-cost alternative products on affected acres. |
