# Global supply adequate to meet demand in 2018-22 :: Content :: Tập đoàn Hoá chất Việt Nam (Vinachem)

> A Vinachem-republished outlook projects global ammonia capacity rising 3% to 232 Mt by 2022, with closures in China's nitrogen restructuring. Global urea capacity is forecast to grow by a net 10 Mt to 226 Mt, and the urea supply-demand imbalance is expected to narrow after 2020.

## Why it matters

Expected tightening of urea supply after 2020 as Chinese capacity closes supports a firmer nitrogen fertilizer outlook, though near-term surplus persists until about 2019.
