FERTIMEX II FERTILIZ

closed

Construction of a complex to produce and sell 275,000 tons per year of diammonium phosphate, 250,000 tons per year of compound fertilizers, 190,000 tons per year of solid ammonium nitrate and 10,000 tons per year of phosphoric acid (P205) is proposed. The complex will include facilities to produce the following end products: sulfuric acid - 660,000 tpy, phosphoric acid - 198,000 tpy, nitric acid - 215,000 tpy, ammonium nitrate - 270,000 tpy, diammonium phosphate - 275,000 tpy, and compound fertilizers - 250,000 tpy. In view of the steps being taken to promote the use of high analysis fertilizers and of their inherent advantages, the market risk is acceptable. The company is taking steps to reduce the management risk by improving methods in some fields. Overall, the project presents a moderate level of risk.
