theflyonthewall.com: Agrium CEO: Q409 saw initial stages of recovery in crop input sector
"The fourth quarter of 2009 saw the initial stages of recovery in the crop input sector. We have seen increasing demand for domestic potash and a tight supply situation for nitrogen and phosphate products. Wholesale sales volumes were substantially higher this quarter across all products than the fourth quarter of last year, despite the shortened fall application season." said Mike Wilson, Agrium President and CEO. :theflyonthewall.com

theflyonthewall.com: Canpotex announces new potash sale to China
Canpotex has reached an agreement with Sinofert on a spot sale of approximately 350,000 MT of Canadian potash at competitive prices. This product is to be shipped to China before the end of March 2010. As a result of this latest spot sale, Canpotex is now fully committed on sales through the first quarter of 2010 and will announce plans with respect to second-quarter pricing early in March, after thoroughly reviewing the changing and much-improved overseas potash market conditions. Canpotex is the offshore marketing company owned by the three Saskatchewan potash producing companies: Agrium Inc. (AGU), Mosaic Canada Crop Nutrition, LP, a subsidiary of The Mosaic Co. (MOS), and Potash Corp. of Saskatchewan Inc. (POT). Agrium supplies Canpotex with 9.28% of its potash product, Mosaic 37.11%, and PotashCorp 53.61%. :theflyonthewall.com

theflyonthewall.com: Potash and others could be ripe for a takeover by BHP, Globe and Mail says
BHP Billiton (BHP) surprised investors by buying Athabasca Potash last week. The resource giant had already announced a plan to spend another couple hundred million developing its existing potash resource in the province, The Globe and Mail reports. Investors figure the deep-pocketed BHP will just build its own division from scratch instead of buying one of the big players. However, Globes columnist Fabrice Taylor thinks that might be wrong. Taylor thinks BHP is arguably just as much in the hunt if not more so. If it's not Potash Corp. (POT), it's Mosaic (MOS) or Agrium (AGU). But someone will get taken out and relatively soon, is Taylor's inflation-adjusted two cents worth. Reference Link :theflyonthewall.com
