According to Branco, this involves production that exceeds two digits compared to conventional fertilizers. Thus, there are better financial yields, as the producer accomplishes more with less and there is no waste.
From the executive’s perspective, the current situation with the Russia-Ukraine war has highlighted fertilizers as an alternative to traditional products. When it comes to special fertilizers, we are talking in kilos, not tons, which further improves logistics, availability, and storage.
New Haifa Group Plant Can Solve Bottlenecks in the Brazilian Fertilizer Market
The fertilizer market has been facing some bottlenecks due to the pandemic, which are consequently affecting the production chain. Increased prices, logistical issues for raw material supply, which with the high demand reflects in delays, energy policies, and crises are some factors concerning producers about the supply for this year’s and 2023’s harvest.
It’s important to highlight that the Federal Government announced the national fertilizer plan aimed at achieving self-sufficiency in national production, to reduce the dependence on imports by up to 60% in the next 30 years.
