AGP Executive Report

Farming supply deal: Itafos amended its long-term sulfuric acid contract with Rio Tinto to keep feeding its Conda, Idaho phosphate plant, switching the reference price index from Vancouver to Tampa (May 1, 2026–Dec 31, 2029) and adding flexibility on delivered volumes to smooth recent sulfur price swings. Regional security push: ECOWAS is moving to set up a counterterrorism force, with a core counterterror brigade of 1,650 troops and a bigger question hanging over it—how to reliably finance it. Trade and compliance risk: Spain’s national security reporting warns drug traffickers are expanding “stashing areas” toward the Balearics and along the Iberian coast, with speedboat attacks on security forces continuing. Policy and data for fisheries: Guinea-Bissau’s fisheries minister stressed the need to “look at our data again,” linking better sector data to stronger governance and enforcement, after signing an MoU with Blue Ventures. Thin local coverage: Beyond these themes, the week’s items are mostly regional or global rather than Guinea-Bissau-specific.
