# East Africa and Southern Africa

> East and Southern African fertilizer prices were little changed in October 2025, with DAP in Kenya at KSh 5,800 to 6,400 per bag and MAP in South Africa down about $20 per tonne month on month. Ethiopia finalized a 244,000-tonne DAP purchase after reducing its tender.
