Malaysia's Felda plans a joint venture with Russian producer Uralkali, with equal capital and management stakes, to secure potash supply for its plantations and other buyers. Felda projects annual fertilizer savings of around RM1 billion, and the JV is set to start January 1.
Direct potash procurement could lower input costs for Southeast Asian plantations and gives Uralkali a regional outlet. The deal is a modest change in regional demand and sourcing rather than a broad price driver.
