COMPANY NEWS
Potash of Saskatchewan recently announced an agreement to supply Asian customers with potash shipments through the end of the year. According to the company, prices were in the $700 per ton range, in line with a supply contract its export consortium Canpotex inked last month. Today, however, reports emerged that a Russian company Silvinit agreed to supply Indian customers with potash at a price of $460 per tonne, a more than -34% discount to Potash of Saskatchewan's deal announced yesterday. RBC Capital expected the deal to be priced at $500 per tonne, and noted that current spot prices for the commodity are $750 per tonne. With the Russian deal fueling concerns that potash priceing won't hold up, fertilizer stocks are down sharply today, some by more than -5%.
