Brazil’s urea import requirement could approach 1 million tonnes per month through December as buyers prepare for the safrinha corn season. Large Indian tenders and restrictions on Chinese exports may intensify competition for available supply, while exchange rates and freight costs also affect Brazilian import costs.
Brazilian seasonal demand overlapping with major Indian purchases and constrained Chinese exports could tighten traded availability and raise urea import prices. Higher fertilizer costs may increase safrinha production expenses.
After 176 past bullish trade events, Urea moved a median +0.1% over 5 sessions (51% higher; middle half -1.3% to +2.4%), and +1.6% over 20.
