Agriculture Minister Ravi Ratiram says there are alternative fertilisers that farmers can use as the Government seeks to settle the ongoing dispute with Nutrien.
Farmers have been complaining that there may be an increase in prices for produce due to a shortfall created after the company stopped production for the rest of the year.
The shutdown of Nutrien’s ammonia operations at Point Lisas is slowing the supply of nitrogen fertiliser, which is already affecting the production crops in both pineapple and rice fields.
