Egyptian fertilizer producer Mopco has sold a further 25,000t of granular urea at $286/t fob for loading next month to a European market.
The producer is now targeting $290/t fob.
The deal follows business which emerged at a similar level today, with Mopco selling a total of 20,000t at $286/t fob to two trading firms, while fellow producer Alexfert sold 5,000t of granular urea at $287/t fob for June loading.
Trading firms covering short sales across mainland Europe and Turkey have been driving these latest deals out of Egypt, with purchases taking place earlier in the week in the lower $280s/t fob.
