Bangladesh's agriculture minister said the government faces a dilemma over raising fertiliser prices, since continued subsidies strain the budget while removing them would raise farm costs. He said subsidy needs are around Tk 280 billion, with Tk 190 billion provided so far, and that global fertiliser prices have risen sharply.
Higher global fertiliser costs raise production costs for Bangladesh farmers and may pressure food output and prices; the story signals subsidy strain rather than a direct move in feed commodity prices.
