The current export quota for Russian producers of nitrogen fertilizers has been increased by 750,000 tons. Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin signed a decree to this effect. The decision will be valid until the end of 2022.
In general, the quota is now just over 9 million tons. The restrictions do not apply to supplies to Abkhazia and South Ossetia.
The Ministry of Industry and Trade was instructed to distribute additional volumes among exporters.
The decision was made to support Russian fertilizer producers, who, in conditions of sufficient saturation of the domestic market with products, will have the opportunity to send additional volumes for export.
