Bangladesh's ministry of agriculture tender to buy 300,000t of standard MOP closed today. A total of 554,000t was offered.
The lowest offer was for MOP of Canadian origin, at $283.94/t cfr. Shipments are scheduled for June to mid-October.
The lowest offers for 310,000t ranged between $283.94-296.70/t cfr. Of these, Canadian-origin product totalled 130,000t; Belarusian product 120,000t, and the remaining 60,000t was offered from Russia.
Bangladesh imports fertilizers through two main channels — intergovernmental agreements arranged by state-owned agricultural development firm BADC, and a private-sector tender process in which prices are offered on a spot basis. This year, 360,000t of MOP will be supplied under an intergovernmental agreement.
