As follows from his report, last year there was serious volatility in the Russian market and prices for certain mineral fertilizers increased many times. However, due to the measures taken by the government, the situation has become stable. Russian chemical companies are planning to increase the production of mineral fertilizers.

“By 2030, the volume of purchases of mineral fertilizers must be increased to 8 million tons,” Dmitry Patrushev emphasized.
