Nutrien restarts operations at White Springs

Canadian fertilizer producer Nutrien today confirmed the restart of the company's White Springs, Florida, phosphate fertilizer facility, which was shut last month by Hurricane Helene.

Production at the plant is ramping up, the company said without responding to a question on how much production was lost during the outage.

The plant was shut by storm-induced power outages as Hurricane Helene made landfall on 26 September, so the plant was off line for at least three weeks. The plant produced 1.27mn t of phosphate rock in 2023, according to Nutrien's annual report, so three weeks of production would equate to roughly 800,000t of phosphate rock.

Helene also shut operations at rival fertilizer producer Mosaic's phosphate facility in Riverview, Florida, which is expected to return to normal operations later this week.
