# Urea market tightens amid supply disruptions

> Urea supply remains disrupted after the Middle East conflict began on 13 June, with Egyptian plants running at 50-60% capacity and Iranian production halted. Oman's SIUCI sold August cargoes at USD495-525/tonne FOB, and Southeast Asian tenders cleared around USD452-470/tonne FOB. US Gulf prices fell in the off-season, while Brazil's buying season approaches.

## Why it matters

Reduced output from Egypt and Iran, together with approaching Brazilian demand, is likely to firm urea prices and raise nitrogen input costs for grain and feed producers.
