Trump plans major Belarus fertilizer deal
U.S. President Donald Trump announced his intention to sign a major agreement to purchase potash mineral from Belarus, a key fertilizer material, at prices significantly lower than what he currently pays Canada for supplies. Canada is the main supplier to the United States, providing 79% in 2024, compared to 11% from Russia and 4% from Belarus. This announcement comes amid an ongoing trade dispute between Washington and Ottawa and aims to reduce dependence on Canada as a primary source and to achieve more competitive prices.
