Phosphate market firmed in Q4 after a mixed year ■
After a weak start to the year, DAP prices recorded an average price around US$20/t higher than in 2016
■
Overall demand was healthy through the year with Q4 being supported by rising demand in the Indian sub-continent
■
Plant closures and delays in project ramp-ups impacted supply and China exports slowed due to a buoyant local market
■
Production input prices for phosphate fertilisers, notably Sulphur and ammonia, also increased late in the year which also impacted prices positively
