Strongest average month-over-month move historically: December (+5.6% avg).
Used in nitrogen fertilizer supply and blending contracts as the input-cost benchmark ahead of the finished fertilizer manufacturing index. It bundles several nitrogen intermediates into one figure, so a contract buying only urea specifically still benefits from naming urea in the clause language even though this series is what gets tracked.
A starting point citing this series by name and code. Replace the bracketed terms with your contract's actual scope before use.
The [affected portion] of the Contract Price shall be adjusted using US PPI — Synthetic Ammonia, Nitric Acid, Ammonium Compounds, and Urea (BLS series WPU0652013A), published by BLS. Base Period: the index value published for August 2026 (or the month of contract signing, if different) is the Base Value. Adjustment: at each Adjustment Date, the Current Value is the most recently published three-month average of the index (the Averaging Window). The Escalation Factor equals Current Value divided by Base Value. Cap: the Escalation Factor applied under this clause shall not exceed 1.10 or fall below 0.90 (a 10% cap and floor) in any single Adjustment Date, regardless of the index's actual movement. [Replace bracketed terms with your contract's actual affected-portion definition and adjustment-date schedule before use. This is a drafting starting point, not legal advice.]

Compare the current value of BLS series WPU0652013A (Synthetic Ammonia, Nitric Acid, Ammonium Compounds, and Urea) to its value at contract signing, turn that into a ratio, and apply the ratio to the nitrogen fertilizer-affected line items. A usable clause also names an averaging window, a publication-lag rule, and a cap.
