# Sulfur for phosphate fertilizer production in Morocco becomes 3.6 times more expensive

> Moroccan companies' average declared value of US sulfur imports rose 3.6-fold to $857.52 per ton in January–September 2026. US and Canadian sulfur exports to Morocco surged, and Morocco's phosphate fertilizer exports to the US rose 33.6% in volume. The higher sulfur cost raises the production cost of phosphate fertilizers.
