Market update

Urea: 

  • Only one supplier price out @ £350/t June-Sept, £360/t Oct-Dec and £370/t Jan-Mar. AF price: £343/t June-Sept, £353/t Oct-Dec.  

  • Prices have firmed in the USA as a shortage of UAN. Rumours are China may export all, indicating price could come down.  

  • For other suppliers I suspect new season price will open around £325/30. 

AN 34.5%: 

  • No new season prices yet. Currently Lithan £365-£375t, Nitram £375-£380t.

Working for you in unprecedented times

“It's been a ‘perfect storm’ this spring: late commitment, suppliers only bagging to order, DAP demand up approximately 15%, vessels delayed, and the weather giving fantastic application conditions.  

"For those of you affected by delayed deliveries, I appreciate it’s been frustrating. Rest assured that behind the scenes, your AF Fertiliser team have worked tirelessly on your behalf to get product on farm. We appreciate your patience, thank you. 

"For the new fertiliser season, we’ll continue to provide early delivery options, work with suppliers to manage deliveries and offer incentives such as delayed payment terms.  

"We know staying updated is vital for your farming business, so look out for regular updates from Mark and his team in AF News.”
