The director of plant foods for MFA Incorporated is urging caution on issuing sanctions against Russian fertilizer exports.
Chris DeMoss tells Brownfield Russian fertilizer exports are already down sharply, and sanctions on fertilizer exports would further threaten global food production…
“No one’s willing to take a vessel to get loaded, really,” DeMoss said. “Because it’s just risky.”
He said Russia, and neighboring Belarus, produce more than a third of the world’s potash and substantial amounts of other fertilizers.
