Ukraine resumed export of nitrogen fertilizers and exported 12 thousand tons in January-April this year, Infoindustriya news agency reported.
“The focus on export is not accidental: because of the decrease of activity in the domestic market of Ukraine producers will have to go to foreign markets (Turkey, Moldova, EU countries). We can even export complex fertilizers, although the cost of phosphate remains high, but the available potassium and the low price of gas opens other opportunities for producers”, – explained the director of the agency Dmitriy Gordeichuk.
According to the agency, in the four months of 2023, Ukraine also exported to Moldova and the EU 3 thousand tons of carbamide, about 2 thousand tons of lime nitrate, 565 tons of urea.
Now Ukraine has low gas prices compared to the EU countries, which allow Ukrainian producers to export profitably, primarily urea, the analysts emphasized.
