 Thursday, January 29,2026

AsemconnectVietnam - Domestic fertilizer prices in Vietnam remained largely stable in January 2026, showing no significant changes from the previous period, as supply stayed abundant while demand had yet to see a sharp increase during the mid-season lull. However, compared with previous years, prices of most fertilizer products remained at relatively high levels.

In Northern Vietnam, fertilizer prices were unchanged. Ha Bac and Phu My urea were quoted at VND560,000–590,000 per bag and VND540,000–580,000 per bag, respectively. Viet Nhat-branded NPK 16-16-8 +TE was priced at VND420,000–440,000 per bag, while NPK 16-16-8 traded at around VND730,000–760,000 per bag.
In Central Vietnam, no new price adjustments were recorded. Phu My and Ha Anh powdered potassium fertilizer was sold at VND520,000–560,000 per bag, while NPK 16-16-8 was priced at VND700,000–740,000 per bag.
In the Mekong Delta, fertilizer prices remained subdued. Hong Ha DAP was the most expensive product in the region, quoted at VND1.25–1.30 million per bag. Ca Mau and Phu My urea were sold at VND620,000–640,000 per bag and VND610,000–630,000 per bag, respectively.
In Southeastern Vietnam and the Central Highlands, fertilizer prices also remained stable. Ca Mau and Phu My powdered potassium fertilizer was listed at VND490,000–580,000 per bag. NPK 16-16-8 prices ranged from VND650,000 to VND750,000 per bag, depending on brand. Phu My recorded the lowest prices, while Ca Mau and Dau Trau were quoted at higher levels.
