Quick User Manual

This page is fully interactive. Every chart, total, ranking, and trade pattern changes dynamically with the selected reporter, partner, product, flow, and year.

Recommended reading flow: begin with the global overview, narrow to a reporter country, then compare partners, products, and trade flow direction to identify the most relevant trade pattern.

  • Start broad: first read the global fertilizer trade picture before filtering to a specific country.
  • Select reporter and partner carefully: reporter-side and partner-side choices should reflect the trade question you are asking.
  • Choose the product: isolate the exact fertilizer product to avoid mixing market signals across different input categories.
  • Anchor the year: always note the selected year when quoting a figure in any report or presentation.
  • Read direction correctly: exports and imports should be interpreted separately before drawing trade balance conclusions.
