The current crisis generated by the conflict between Russia and Ukraine has decreased in the supply of nitrogen fertilisers, also in Peru. This puts at risk the fragile food security of the country as well as many others in similar situations. The Peruvian government, aware of the production difficulties that agricultural producers are facing, foresees a decrease in the production campaign of 2022 – 2023. Therefore it has approved the DIRECTIVE FOR THE PURCHASE OF NITROGEN FERTILIZER UREA IN THE INTERNATIONAL MARKET UNDER EMERGENCY DECREE 013-2022. This directive stipulates the conditions for the acquisition of 65,587 tons of urea by the Peruvian government, worth €87 million. Dutch companies may be able to participate in this process. |
