Tax & Trade

OVERVIEW

Fertilizer is a globally traded commodity where the U.S. tax code and policies of governments around the world can impact manufacturing, distribution, and end use. In turn, this affects supply and demand. TFI is a neutral party in trade remedy cases.

TFI supports policies that:

  • Promote a more open, fair, predictable, and transparent trading environment that empowers the continued growth of a resilient, competitive, and sustainable fertilizer industry for our farmer customers.
  • Update and modernize tax policies, including maintaining a reliable corporate tax rate, to enable the fertilizer industry to compete in the global market.
  • Incentivize low-carbon ammonia production, carbon capture and sequestration, and alternative production methods along with farmers’ utilization of sustainable fertilizer products consistent with the 4R Nutrient Stewardship framework.
  • Advance harmonization of uniform fertilizer standards and definitions across the global market to prevent the misuse of regulations as trade barriers.
