Abstract
This report provides a comprehensive overview of fertilizer statistics in Rwanda for the period from 2018 to 2022. It examines key metrics including fertilizer production, imports, origins, exports, and consumption trends, utilizing official trade data sourced from the Rwanda Agriculture and Animal Resources Development Board (RAB) and validated by the Fertilizer Technical Working Group. Notably, Rwanda has no primary fertilizer production, relying on imports, with significant contributions from companies such as Yara and the Rwanda Fertilizer Company. The report highlights a marked increase in fertilizer imports in 2022, influenced by government subsidies aimed at enhancing agricultural productivity. The analysis reveals the seasonal patterns of fertilizer demand and the origins of major imported fertilizers, including NPK, DAP, and Urea. Additionally, it discusses the implications of subsidy programs and the integration of digital platforms for efficient fertilizer distribution.
