For Bangladesh’s 2026–27 season, field offices estimated demand for urea, DAP, TSP and MoP at 6.879 million tonnes, while the government approved 5.805 million tonnes. Farmers in Chapainawabganj reportedly faced queues and premium-priced fertilizer, while the agricultural extension department disputed whether field-level estimates reflected actual demand.
The allocation is about 1.07 million tonnes below reported demand, potentially constraining fertilizer availability and crop nutrient application. That could limit crop yields and support fertilizer prices, although the department questions the demand estimate.
After 129 past bullish policy events, Urea moved a median -0.1% over 5 sessions (47% higher; middle half -1.3% to +2.3%), and +1.4% over 20.
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.
