| Benchmark | Price | vs. 2025 |
|---|---|---|
| NOLA barge (national reference) | $0.28–$0.36/gallon | +15–25% |
| Georgia co-op / distributor | $0.30–$0.39/gallon | +22–32% |

Avoid spot buying UAN during peak application windows. Pre-book Q3 side-dress needs in July before in-season premiums widen.
Georgia sources fertilizer via Savannah and Brunswick ports; distance from major nitrogen production centers adds 5–8% premium versus Gulf Coast states.
| Driver | Impact |
|---|---|
| Natural gas feedstock | UAN is produced from ammonia and urea; natural gas is 70–80% of production cost. |
| Urea and ammonia spot prices | UAN pricing tracks ammonia and urea proportionally — watch both benchmarks. |
| Transportation and logistics | UAN is liquid; tank truck and rail add cost versus dry products, especially in remote regions. |
| In-season demand spikes | Side-dress demand creates short-term price spikes during May–June planting windows. |
