Nigeria's federal government agreed with Morocco's OCP to establish fertilizer production plants in the country. OCP says local farmers will gain technical training and that products will be sold in the Nigerian market.
The partnership is part of a diversification drive away from oil.
New African fertilizer capacity built on Moroccan phosphate could increase regional phosphate and DAP demand over the long term. The project is still in early stages, so the near-term price effect is minimal.
After 151 past bullish policy events, DAP moved a median +0.0% over 5 sessions (50% higher; middle half -0.6% to +0.9%), and +1.9% over 20.
