DAP prices in China fell further this week to $755- $800 / ton FOB due to recent operations in India and Philippines. There were reports this week that several shipments of Chinese DAP were sold to India. At least one sale to major importers shipped in early October traded at $780 CFR/ton, reflecting the lower end of the price range. There were other higher levels of trading earlier in the week. A trading company sold a vessel to India at around $815-820 / ton CFR India, which reflects a net return to $790 / ton FOB and below. In midweek, 8,000 tons of diammonium phosphate was sold to the Philippines through a procurement tender at a reported price of about $800 / ton FOB. But manufacturers say mainstream DAP is quoted at around US $800 / ton FOB, while small-batch DAP shipped in containers to Southeast Asia and Japan is quoted in the US $850-US $920 / ton FOB range. The recent decline in Indian prices is expected to continue to drive down diammonium phosphate prices in China. The supplier is currently loading up to five pre-sold DAP cargoes to Bangladesh in an effort to meet the September 15 deadline.
