Dit bericht geeft weer eens aan,dat onder onsjes van regeringen voor prijs bederf kunnen zorgen en dat het corrupte regiem Belarus marktprijzen gewoon negeert,het betreft potash dus voor OCI momenteel nog geen invloed maar de Russen met veel Nitro partijen kunnen ook voor prijsbederf zorgen.
India and Belarusian Potash Price Agreement Not Reflective of Market Conditions
India Pricing Agreement Appears to be Negotiated Through Direct Government Involvement and not Reflective of Market Conditions
January 30, 2021 10:00 AM Eastern Standard Time
SASKATOON, Saskatchewan--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nutrien Ltd. (TSX and NYSE: NTR), the world’s largest full-service producer of crop inputs and services and largest potash producer, announced today that it is fully aligned with Canpotex’s view that the new price announced between Indian Potash Limited (IPL) and Belarusian Potash Company (BPC) is significantly below market price levels for potash in key offshore markets.
“We understand that the Potash agreement with India was settled at the highest government level with limited commercial involvement,” said Ken Seitz, Executive Vice President and CEO, Nutrien Potash. “This contract price in no way reflects the market-based pricing in the current key offshore potash markets which, like other fertilizers, is being supported by strong global crop fundamentals. Nutrien wholly supports Canpotex’s position to not follow this price level for potential sales into India in 2021.”
Nutrien also confirmed today that it is now fully committed on potash sales to North America through April 2021, in addition to offshore sales volumes with Canpotex. It is significant that these offshore commitments through April do not include any shipments to India or China.
