# Phosphates: exports rebound sharply in September

> Moroccan exports of phosphates and derivatives rose by more than 42% in September 2026, ending eight months of decline, according to Alpha Bourse. The report says OCP's production has also picked up to a stronger pace. Spot sulphur prices have fallen back below $800 per tonne.

## Why it matters

A rebound in Moroccan phosphate shipments adds supply to the DAP market, which is bearish for prices. Cheaper sulphur eases production costs for phosphate producers, though whether the rebound lasts into Q4 remains to be seen.
