市場動態:中東衝突導致成本飆升,東南亞稻農首當其衝

By

-- 根據《日經亞洲評論》週三報道,隨著化肥價格飆升,南亞和東南亞的稻農在播種季前面臨越來越大的成本壓力,這引發了人們對區域糧食供應的擔憂。 受中東地緣政治不穩定的影響,尿素價格在4月上漲了18%,此前3月已飆升54%。報告稱,根據世界銀行的數據,4月份尿素基準價格達到每噸857美元,比去年同期翻了一番多,並超過了3月份創下的四年來的最高水平。 此前,霍爾木茲海峽關閉,導致卡達和沙烏地阿拉伯的尿素出口中斷。報道稱,這兩國的尿素供應量約佔全球總供應量的三分之一。 投入成本上漲迫使農民減少化肥用量,這可能導致水稻種植季開始後產量下降。日經新聞指出,由於亞洲嚴重依賴海灣地區的供應,長期供應中斷可能引發短缺,而能源和運輸成本的上漲可能使整體生產成本上漲高達80%。 (市場動態新聞來自與全球市場專業人士的對話。這些資訊據信來自可靠來源,但可能包含傳聞和推測。準確性無法保證。)
