São Paulo – Brazil imported 1.14 million tons of fertilizers from Arab countries from January through April of this year, up from 675,000 tons in Jan-Apr 2015, a 69% increase as per numbers from the Ministry of Industry, Foreign Trade and Services. <\/p>\n

In April alone, Brazilian fertilizer imports from Arab countries soared 70% from April 2015, from 215,500 tons to 364,400 tons. <\/p>\n

On the other hand, total fertilizer imports in Brazil dropped 6.4% in April from a year ago, according to the National Fertilizer Association (Anda), from 1.57 million tons in April 2015 to 1.47 million tons in April 2016. <\/p>\n

In Jan-Apr, total imports increased by 3.5% from 5.46 million tons to 5.65 million tons.<\/p>\n
