Many ag places already locked in fert prices, and really can't do much about it - they will have fert, but the price is set - not much they can do about it.
A lot of fert comes from Canada, where they have a bit of an OPEC-type cartel on the price of fert; and have a labor issue, and are willing to shut down to let supplies match demand to keep prices up.
