“The CF team’s strong execution, along with generally higher nitrogen prices compared to the year before, helped CF deliver solid results in the first quarter despite lower sales volumes driven by wet and cold weather,” said Tony Will, president and chief executive officer, CF Industries Holdings, Inc. “Looking ahead, we expect a compressed planting season and transportation issues to create logistical challenges in the Corn Belt over the next two months. We believe that our in-region production and extensive transportation and distribution network are tremendous advantages in this environment, enabling us to reliably deliver products to our customers when and where they need it.”
