Earlier, Russian Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Patrushev said at a meeting with producers of mineral fertilizers that more than 70 million tons of mineral fertilizers could be produced in Russia in 2027. By 2030, the production of mineral fertilizers is planned to increase to 80 million tons. In 2024, the production of mineral fertilizers exceeded 63 million tons.

Russian-made products were also in demand on export markets, but market participants took into account the possible risks of shipments to unfriendly countries.
