# Northern farmers paying more for TSP fertiliser amid low supply | The Daily Star

> Farmers in northern Bangladesh are paying Tk 47 to 50 per kg for TSP fertiliser against a government rate of Tk 27. Only 19,682 tonnes were allocated against an estimated demand of 53,649 tonnes for the July-September Aman season. Dealers say government supply shortfalls have pushed retail prices up.
