India's mines ministry has proposed aligning the average sale price of domestically mined rock phosphate with international rates through a draft amendment to the Minerals Concession Rules. The move aims to boost domestic production amid a DAP shortage, since almost all current DAP raw materials are imported.
Higher domestic rock phosphate pricing would raise input costs for local DAP producers if it is adopted, though it could increase domestic supply over time. Effects on finished DAP prices are limited in the near term.
