@KammererGolf 2) My research is showing that a single application of an SDHI nematicide like Indemnify followed by nematicides with other MOAs is superior to 4 applications of SDHI nematicide.

Breaking: The June ECMWF update has trended *even stronger* with this year's El Niño.

Almost every scenario now reaches past +3˚C, with a cluster of high-end scenarios in excess of +4˚C.

This outlook now depicts the strongest El Niño on record.

When we spread fertilizer, no single prill makes the difference.

But thousands working together over time create healthier turf, stronger roots, and better playing conditions.

Teams work the same way. No one person can do it all.

Great teams. Great turf. 🌱

The last time an El Niño this strong hit, it killed 50 million people. That was 3 to 4% of the entire world population. Scale that to today and you're looking at 250 million equivalent.

The 1877 Super El Niño triggered simultaneous droughts across India, China, Brazil, and East Africa. Crops failed on four continents at the same time. The famine lasted three years. Researchers have called it "arguably the worst environmental disaster to ever befall humanity."

NOAA's latest update gives a two-in-three chance this one reaches strong or very strong by fall. European models are even more aggressive. Sea surface temperatures need to exceed 2°C above normal to qualify as "super." The trajectory is pointing directly at that threshold.

Here's what makes 2026 structurally different from every previous Super El Niño: there are two independent supply shocks converging on the same crop cycle.

The Iran war has shut down roughly a third of the world's seaborne fertilizer trade through the Strait of Hormuz. US fertilizer supply was at 75% of normal in mid-March, right when the Corn Belt needed it most. Fertilizer prices hit their highest level since 2022. That input shortage is already baked into the 2026 growing season.

The El Niño yield shock operates on a 6 to 12 month lag. India is forecasting below-normal monsoons for the first time in three years. Indonesia and Malaysia carry 90% of global palm oil, and El Niño production declines in those countries take 6 to 24 months to peak. Every strong El Niño in the past 55 years has reduced global cocoa production.

So the fertilizer shortage weakens the crops El Niño is about to stress, and the El Niño yield collapse hits in 2027 on fields that were already under-fertilized in 2026. Two shocks with nearly identical lag structures, converging on the same harvest window.

The difference between 1877 and 2026: we can see this one coming six months out. The commodity futures curve is barely pricing either shock. Whether that's rational discounting or willful denial depends entirely on what the Pacific Ocean does between now and October.

[Fertilizer Week @FertilizerWeek1]

#DAP is fast approaching $1,000/t in some markets and Mosaic is curtailing production in the US and Brazil amid record #sulphur and #sulphuric acid costs. #Ammonia prices were firmer or little changed outside the US, where values declined (2/3)

[Fertilizer Week @FertilizerWeek1]

#Fertilizer shipments through the Strait of Hormuz remain largely paralysed and producers, cognisant of what appears to be the new normal, are forced to seek more expensive routes to market. #Phosphates and #sulphur price gains last week outstripped other products (1/3)
