Russian fertilizer’s share in India’s total fertilizer imports reached record level
Andre Gurayev further said, “In the first half of the year, the share of Russian fertilizers in India’s total fertilizer imports has increased to 33 percent. This means that every third tonne fertilizer imported by India is from Russia. ”This growth is mainly due to an increase in the supply of phosphorus -containing fertilizers.

America implemented 25 percent additional tariffs on India
This news has come at a time when the US has recently implemented 25 percent additional tariffs on India due to continuous buying crude oil from Russia. Due to this 25 percent additional tariff, the total tariff of America on India has now increased to 50 percent. While on the one hand, the US wants to prevent India from trade with Russia, while on the other hand America is not taking any such strict decision regarding China. Whereas, China buys the most crude oil from Russia.
India’s clean answer to America
Despite the 50 percent tariff imposed by the US on India, Indian companies are buying crude oil from Russia, as there has been no restriction on the purchase of oil from the government. India has made it clear that where we will get a good deal, we will do business there.
