It&#8217;s a 365-day-a-year process,\u201d Grissom said.<\/p>\n<p>As if making a buck off the land wasn\u2019t hard enough, there are now geopolitical factors at play, including the Iran War and Strait of Hormuz closure. Both have global impact and are choking supply chains and sending the prices of fertilizer and jet fuel up.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"pullquote\">\u201cWe&#8217;re confident that the administration is working to resolve this trade negotiation,\u201d Grissom said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Grissom said his fellow North Carolina tobacco growers are watching President Trump\u2019s summit with the Chinese president.<\/p>\n<p>He said a good exchange between these superpowers over common concerns in the Middle East could create the right conditions for China to buy more North Carolina tobacco.<\/p>\n<p>A year ago, farmers talked about the impacts tobacco farmers were feeling from international tariffs, impacting the volume of tobacco purchased by China.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor North Carolina tobacco, I mean, we really depend on this a lot,\u201d Grissom said. \u201cSo for &#8217;26, it could open up a lot more volume of tobacco and more pounds. If we could get China to come back and buy tobacco, because our domestic market content continues to decline anywhere from 12 to 14% year over year.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>DTN, a private company that tracks international agricultural markets, puts urea, used in nitrogen-based fertilizer, at $865 a ton. That is a 55% higher price since February.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut once the war started, they just skyrocketed. I mean, just unexpectedly. I mean, I went three weeks and couldn&#8217;t even get a price on fertilizer. They wouldn&#8217;t sell it. They wouldn&#8217;t give a price on it because it was changing that fast,\u201d Grissom said.<\/p>\n<p>Grissom is also an independent retailer of fertilizer, which means he\u2019s seeing the problem from multiple sides.<\/p>\n<p>Even outside the closure of the Strait of Hormuz and Iran War, Grissom said fewer farmers are farming more land, which equates to fewer people buying products.<\/p>\n<p>Costs for diesel are still up. The global inventory is down, and Grissom said his profit margins are looking thin.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith the price\u00a0and the volatility of it, right now we are just buying it as needed,\u201d Grissom said.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s also the impact of drought in the state.<\/p>\n<p>Grissom said, despite any pitfalls, he wouldn\u2019t have it any other way.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0\u201cI think probably what keeps myself personally and most everybody I know doing this is just the love. I absolutely love what I do every day. I mean, it&#8217;s what gets me up in the morning. It\u2019s what I think about when I go to bed at night,\u201d Grissom said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/spectrumlocalnews.com\/nc\/charlotte\/news\/2026\/05\/14\/gets-me-up-in-the-morning-\">Source link <\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>North Carolina tobacco farmers are closely monitoring the meeting between President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping.
