Market analytics
One of the largest on the planet. Population Reference Bureau analysts predict the global population will increase to 10 billion by 2050, creating a high demand for food.
⇧13%
World cereal production could increase by 13% by 2027, according to an agricultural forecast published by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and FAO (Food and Agriculture Organisation). Therefore, agricultural companies will increase the amount of arable land they acquire in order to produce more crops and meet the increasing demand of the population.
x2.2 times
Thanks to the government's policy to ensure Russia's food security, agriculture is developing. Mineral fertiliser producers are supported by steadily growing demand from the agro-industrial sector. Domestic consumption of mineral fertilisers grew 2.2 times between 2010 and 2020 to 20.9 million tonnes in physical weight.
⇧6,6%
In 2020, the Russian mineral fertiliser market grew by 6.6% to reach a record 54.7 million tonnes of fertilisers. Over the past 10 years, producers have increased output volumes by 150%.
