A Swedish analyst in the field of global commodity and energy markets: the export of chemical fertilizers through the Strait of Hormuz has reached zero. In the months of September and October, no shipments of fertilizers passed through this strait. Before the war, about 20% of the nitrogen fertilizers traded on the world market passed through this strait. The countries of the Persian Gulf also supply about half of the sulfur supplied in the world.
