Dear Partner,

The Feed the Future EnGRAIS project for West Africa has launched the 2022 edition of the West Africa Fertilizer Business Information Guide (#WAFBIG 2022). The Guide provides a comprehensive overview of the regional fertilizer business environment to guide stakeholders make informed decisions. This 2022 edition is an update of the first edition published in 2021, a year marked by the COVID-19 pandemic that severely impacted agricultural production systems and the fertilizer sector. Highlights include:

• Latest national statistics on fertilizer production, trade, and use, as well as updated maps and profiles of fertilizer production and blending facilities.

• Procedures and logistics costs that contribute to fertilizer pricing from port to farm.

• Key principles for smart fertilizer subsidy programs

• The innovative Fertilizer and Seed Recommendations Map for West Africa and Agro Input Packages.
