Eric Snodgrass, the chief atmospheric scientist with Nutrien Ag Solutions, is keeping his eye on two things: ocean temps in the Gulf of Alaska and the strength of this year's La Nina.

In other news, our fellow dairymen and women out West are facing severe drought conditions. Severe weather events in other areas of the globe are also disrupting markets. Expect above normal severe weather (tornadoes, thunderstorms) come June.
