Government cites phosphate price rise weigh on primary industry
Commerce Minister Cameron explained the July 1 price rise for superphosphate was driven by higher freight costs on imported phosphate rock from Nauru and Ocean Island and increased sulphur and bag costs. He noted the increase is partly justified but may be trimmed if shipping and input costs ease, urging industry cooperation while warning against profiteering. He also described regional variations and the need to monitor prices before year end.
