> SunSirs reports that global nitrogen and phosphate fertilizer prices have risen sharply since the US-Israel-Iran conflict began, with urea up as much as 50% in some regions. China's domestic fertilizer market has stayed stable, with nitrogen prices under half of international levels and phosphate more than RMB1,000 below world prices.
