India's fertilizer imports doubled in January 2025 to 1.231 million tonnes, with urea imports at 554,000 tonnes, DAP at 227,000 tonnes, and MOP at 219,000 tonnes. Fertilizer sales also rose, with urea sales up 8.9% year on year for April-January.
The government is importing early to avoid a repeat of the 2024 DAP shortage.
Early Indian import buying across urea, DAP and potash adds to global demand and supports prices ahead of the kharif season. Buyers should expect firmer fertilizer markets.
