# UN fertiliser corridor to help ease pressure on global food security

> The UN has proposed a mechanism to restore fertiliser shipments through the Strait of Hormuz, with a coordination centre in Oman to register vessels and oversee safe passage. The mechanism is inactive pending a US-Iran agreement; UN officials say five vessels a day could help maintain supplies, including shipments of urea that previously passed through the strait.

## Why it matters

Restored Gulf shipping could ease supply constraints for fertiliser buyers ahead of planting seasons and reduce upward pressure on urea prices. The price relief depends on a US-Iran agreement and the corridor becoming operational.
