# KNTC-OCP Partnership Aims to Stabilize Fertiliser Prices for Kenyan Farmers — Nyakundi Report

> Kenya's National Trading Corporation has partnered with OCP Kenya to sell 50kg bags of DAP at Ksh2,300, down from Ksh2,800-3,200. The deal follows the suspension of the subsidized fertilizer program in March 2020 and supplies 60,000 bags to planting regions. OCP will import fertilizer while KNTC manages distribution.

## Why it matters

Government-linked distribution lowers local DAP retail prices and removes middlemen, but the effect is limited to Kenya and does not change global phosphate supply or prices.
