An opinion piece argues that proposed EU cadmium limits on phosphate fertilisers, part of the Circular Economy Package, would reduce supply and raise costs. The EU imports about 85% of its phosphate, mainly from Morocco, Russia and Algeria, and the piece says the proposed limits are not backed by sufficient science.
Tighter cadmium caps could shrink the pool of eligible phosphate suppliers to the EU, reducing competition and pushing phosphate prices up.
