Moroccan phosphate rock and fertilizer exports rose 17% year on year in January, with fertilizer sales up 20% and phosphoric acid exports up 26%. The gains followed a 34% export decline in 2023.
OCP's profits rose 21%, although its fourth-quarter revenues fell 20%.
Stronger Moroccan export volumes add supply to global phosphate markets, which is mildly bearish for DAP and phosrock prices. Recovering demand from the agriculture sector supports the outlook.
