Triple superphosphate (TSP) and diammonium phosphate (DAP) saw particularly sharp gains, rising 43 and 23 percent, respectively. The increase has been driven by strong demand, trade restrictions, and production shortfalls\u2014especially in the case of urea. For the full year, prices are projected to register a modest increase over 2024, supported by firm demand, before stabilizing in 2026. However, prices are expected to remain well above their 2015\u201319 average, reflecting elevated input costs, resilient consumption, and ongoing export restrictions (China), sanctions (Belarus), and tariffs (Belarus and Russia). Risks to the outlook include input cost increases on the upside, and a potential easing if Chinese exports resume on the downside.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"This blog post is part of a special series based on the April 2025\u00a0Commodity Markets Outlook,\u00a0a flagship report&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":7509,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[7777,7782,28,7781,7779,7780,7776,7778,112],"class_list":["post-7508","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-markets","tag-dataviz","tag-agriculture-and-food","tag-business","tag-commodity-markets-outlook","tag-commodity-prices","tag-data-accuracy","tag-data-blog","tag-data-news","tag-markets"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7508","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7508"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7508\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7509"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7508"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7508"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7508"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
