Belarus has installed the main equipment at its Nezhin mining and processing complex and has started producing potash fertilizers. The roughly $2 billion project still has no clear path to full operation, and its launch slipped from 2023 after European and US sanctions, with Chinese banks reportedly halting financing.
Output from Nezhin is still partial and constrained by financing and spare parts, so Belarusian potash supply to world markets stays limited. This modestly supports potash prices while sanctions keep Belarusian volumes below capacity.
