According to our analysis, there has been a significant increase of 2.2% in the price of DAP fertilizers in the Indian market.

On the other side, other Asian countries like China have also experienced rebels in the price of fertilizers on account of depletion in fertilizer production and precedence to encounter national concern due to an increase in the price of coal in the country.

In the USA, the price has been hiked by around 1.6% for the Di-ammonium phosphate market owing to the lowering of soybean harvesting, which is directly dependent on fertilizer usage. The USA is the leading producer of soya bean, which it also uses as feed for dairy cattle, and any shortage to that can lead to inflation in the price of meat and dairy products.
