Australian MAP and DAP fertiliser prices jumped sharply, with world ammonium phosphate values up US$120/t since December, the largest rise in many years. A local trader reported quotes moving from $595 to $675/t ex-port plus freight.
Supply was diverted to the US after the US investigated subsidised gas used for ammonia and raised tariffs on Russian and Moroccan imports.
Tight global phosphate supply and diverted cargoes raise input costs for feed and crop producers and are expected to keep prices elevated and volatile. Higher fertiliser costs can also push up future grain production costs.
