AFRICA DIARIES

After years of travelling across Africa’s fertiliser markets, ports, production hubs, boardrooms, and policy circles… I realised something:

Too many of Africa’s most important stories are never really explained.

So I decided to start a new series.

AFRICA DIARIES

Stay tuned

Ethiopia setting the example in Africa securing close to its DAP annual demand, revised to just 1 million tonnes in the middle of a global crisis

Recent shipments from Saudi Arabia and Russia

[Mounir Halim Belfkih @HalimMounir]

DAP offered over $1,000/tonne
Africa feels the shock wave

[Mounir Halim Belfkih @HalimMounir]

In a geopolitical shock, some will import fertilizer while others will import the crisis.

In Africa, fertilizer prices are no longer a budget challege but rather a food security and sovereignty matter

[Mounir Halim Belfkih @HalimMounir]

Ethiopia working hard to secure its fertiliser requirement (more than 2.3 million tonnes) as the world navigates a global shock

[Mounir Halim Belfkih @HalimMounir]

Africa faces serious food security threat amid the consequences of the war in the Middle East

[Mounir Halim Belfkih @HalimMounir]

India seeks 2.5million tonnes of urea in its tender, closing on 15 April

30% of global urea trade coming from Middle East and 40-50% of urea share from Middle East in India historic procurement

China not exporting

Forecasted bids in $850-$905 cfr range

U do the math!

Shortage of top dressing fertiliser in Kenya will lead to reduced crop yield and les crops with an estimated replacement cost of up to $402 million USD

AF2.Q: non profit open acess platform for Africa from Africa. to Africans by Africans 💪 ==>> Briefings. Crisis reports. And at its heart, the MARKET LENS, a live cockpit spanning fertiliser shipments, procurement, price forecasts, demand outlooks, yield gaps and crop production.

[Mounir Halim Belfkih @HalimMounir]

A personal milestone. And a humbling one.

For years I watched Africa's public sector navigate some of the most consequential agricultural decisions on earth: fertiliser access, food security, market shocks, often without the intelligence they deserved. Today that changes 👉🏻AF2.Q

mastering the #3Ps of procurement (Period, Product, Price). By locking in the right time to buy, the right product or ability to switch, and the right price point, Nigeria can reduce exposure to market shocks while maximising value for farmers. #MOFI, #NSIA @HalimMounir
