# Fertilizer market enters autumn with urea steady, phosphate tight and potash demand flat — Fertilizer Daily

> BINFIELD's market overview says urea has stabilized near $409/t FOB after Indian tender buying and signs that China may loosen export quotas. Phosphate remains the tightest segment because sulfur costs have passed $1,000/t after Hormuz restrictions and Russia's sulfur export ban. Potash demand in Southeast Asia and Latin America is sluggish.
