Escalating Middle East conflicts have led suppliers to raise or withdraw urea offers across various markets. On October 2, the November Arab Gulf urea futures contract traded at USD 367/tonne FOB, up USD 12/tonne from October 1.
Supply withdrawals from a major exporting region tighten global urea availability and push fertilizer prices higher, raising input costs for grain growers.
After 205 past bullish geopolitics events, UREA moved a median +0.4% over 5 sessions (53% higher; middle half -2.1% to +3.0%), and -0.4% over 20.
