Global DAP prices fell to $920 per tonne, nearly 10% below the previous week, after India's fertiliser ministry told companies to stop purchases above that level. The government has tied up supplies for the upcoming kharif season and reported DAP stocks of 3 million tonnes as of April 1, versus 1.8 million a year earlier.
India is the world's largest fertiliser importer, so its purchase cap removes a major bidder and pressures phosphate prices lower. Buyers of feed-related inputs should expect softer phosphate costs in the near term, though the broader fertiliser price level remains high.
Na 50 eerdere neerwaarts beleid-gebeurtenissen bewoog DAP zich mediaan +0,9% over 5 sessies (62% hoger; middelste helft -0,1% tot +1,6%), en +0,9% over 20.
