Nutrien Ltd. (NYSE:NTR) is included among the 13 Best Canadian Dividend Stocks to Buy and Hold for the Long Term.
Wells Fargo began covering Nutrien Ltd. (NYSE:NTR) on November 11 with an Equal Weight rating and set a price target of $64, a slight trim from its prior $65 target, even though the company posted solid third-quarter results, according to a report by The Fly. The firm pointed to a challenging near-term backdrop for farmers, noting a record North American harvest and softer crop prices heading into 2026.
Even with these pressures, analysts remain constructive on Nutrien Ltd. (NYSE:NTR)’s long-term position. Global food demand continues to climb, farmland is not expanding, and growers still depend on consistent access to potash, nitrogen, and phosphate. Nutrien is one of the few companies worldwide that supplies all three nutrients at scale. That reach gives the company strong pricing power and a durable competitive moat that may not stand out during weak commodity cycles but becomes highly visible when conditions improve.
In the third quarter of 2025, Nutrien Ltd. (NYSE:NTR) reported net earnings of $1.7 billion and generated adjusted EBITDA of $4.8 billion over the first nine months of the year. Adjusted EBITDA moved higher, supported by better fertilizer selling prices, stronger upstream fertilizer volumes, and improved performance in the Retail segment. The company also continued to prioritize shareholder returns, distributing about $1.2 billion through dividends and buybacks over the same nine-month period.
Nutrien Ltd. (NYSE:NTR) operates as the world’s largest producer and distributor of crop inputs, supplying fertilizers and seeds while also providing a wide range of agricultural retail services.
