# Fertilizers Are Sharply Rising in Price in Azerbaijan: What Are the Risks for the Food Market?

> Imported fertilizer prices in Azerbaijan have recently risen by 25–35%, with global conflict and supply-chain disruptions cited as drivers. Russian nitrogen fertilizer reportedly increased from 31 to 43 manats per ton, while locally produced urea has also become more expensive; an agricultural specialist warned farmers may cut application, risking lower yields and poorer crop quality.
