Bangladesh's Cabinet Committee on Government Purchase approved imports of 295,000 tonnes of fertiliser from Morocco, Saudi Arabia and the UAE, plus a local purchase from KAFCO, at a total cost of Tk2,207.77 crore. The package covers 2026-27 needs: 60,000 tonnes of TSP, 155,000 tonnes of granular urea and 80,000 tonnes of DAP.
Committed purchases at about $410 to $850 per tonne add to Asian demand for urea and phosphates for the 2026-27 season. The volume is small against global trade, so the price impact is limited.
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.
After 193 past bullish trade events, DAP moved a median +0.4% over 5 sessions (54% higher; middle half -0.3% to +1.8%), and +1.9% over 20.
