Russia stops ammonium nitrate exports for one month
Change
Russia banned exports of ammonium nitrate for one month and halted issuance of new export licences, with exceptions only for supplies under government contracts.
Why it matters
New commercial export authorizations for ammonium nitrate are now unavailable, preventing exporters from legally sending new shipments abroad unless covered by a government contract. That constraint forces producers to either divert export-bound volumes to Russia’s domestic market or to pause outbound deliveries until the restriction lifts.
Implications
- • Ammonium nitrate export teams at Uralchem Group, PhosAgro, Acron, EuroChem and KuybyshevAzot must stop arranging new foreign shipments that require fresh export licences and must reallocate export-bound volumes to domestic buyers or hold them, because new licences will not be issued for commercial exports.
- • Fertilizer procurement teams at importers and farm-supply distributors that rely on Russian ammonium nitrate must secure alternative suppliers before the ban expires or face disrupted deliveries for spring planting.
