## Resource

Fertilizer prices are skyrocketing—up 40% in just three months—crushing farmers and sending ripples through your grocery bill. One Arkansas farmer’s cost jumped $50 an acre, adding $200K to his season’s expenses. From corn to strawberries, everything that needs fertilizer is getting pricier. Animal feed costs are climbing too, meaning your steak, chicken, and pork are next. While prices have slightly eased and could drop further if Iran’s conflict ends, many farmers are already in the red. The UN warns this will slash crop yields and drive up food costs for months to come—this is a full food chain crisis, farm to fork.
