Fertilizer Transparency Act of 2026

This bill requires fertilizer manufacturers and wholesalers to report weekly prices and quantities of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and fertilizer products to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The reporting must distinguish between domestic and foreign sources while exempting agricultural cooperatives and non-manufacturer retailers from mandatory requirements, though they may voluntarily provide data. The Secretary of Agriculture will make this information publicly available on a weekly basis through a dashboard that aggregates data to protect confidential business details. A separate retail survey program will supplement manufacturer reports with regional price estimates, and the Secretary must review reporting requirements every two years to ensure they remain accurate. The legislation explicitly states that these reporting requirements do not override existing antitrust laws.
