STC has scrapped its urea tender in which it had earlier planned to buy some 820,000 mt of product (GM Nov. 23, 2016). While some reports were blaming a new currency policy in the country, others noted that the recent tender prices were up some $40/mt.
In addition, sources report that farmers are short on cash and retailers are not offering enough credit; something that is hitting all fertilizer purchases.
