Bangladesh will buy the 60,000kg of fertiliser for more than Tk 3 billion at $0.56 per kg in either case. The government raised the prices of urea fertiliser by Tk 6 to Tk 22 per kg considering the price of urea fertiliser in the international market to be Tk 81 per kg. The government will still have to pay a subsidy of Tk 59 per kg even after the latest price hike, the Ministry of Agriculture said earlier this week.
