China to Supply Majority of India's Urea Fertilizer Tender Following Export Policy Changes
China is set to supply at least 1.2 million tons of urea fertilizer to India as part of India's recent tender, accounting for about two-thirds of the total booked quantity. This increase follows Beijing's easing of export controls earlier this year, which had been tightened to protect domestic supplies amid global disruptions, including the Iran war. The shipments, required to depart by September 24, reflect improving conditions in the global urea market after earlier supply tightness and price surges.
