Decarbonizing the ammonia fertilizer supply chain in Brazil

This policy brief by RMI outlines five strategic areas for action to decarbonize the ammonia fertilizer supply chain in Brazil, aiming to transition the country from a fertilizer importer to a global leader in sustainable production.

• Renewable ammonia has reached cost-competitiveness with fossil ammonia in certain regions, creating an opportunity for Brazil to transition its fertilizer supply chain.
• RMI identifies five immediate priority areas for action to enable fertilizer decarbonization: establishing a strategic vision and roadmap, aligning policies and incentives, mobilizing investment through blended finance and offtake mechanisms, expanding energy infrastructure for green hydrogen and biomethane, and creating demand-activation mechanisms.
• Coordinated policy, investment, and market efforts are intended to help Brazil move from being an importer of fertilizer to a global leader in sustainable production, which would support economic growth and price stability for farmers.
