The U.S. Department of Commerce has concluded that phosphate fertilizers from Russia are receiving unfair government subsidies. This determination means that interactions exist between certain producers/exporters and government support programs, providing them with specific advantages. The department plans to impose countervailing duties on these products to level the playing field. The final decision depends on whether the U.S. International Trade Commission finds that these subsidies harmed or threatened the U.S. domestic industry.

The Department of Commerce has mandated countervailing duties on phosphate fertilizers imported from Morocco. These duties stem from discovered subsidies benefiting Moroccan producers and exporters. The final determination includes revised subsidy calculations, pending further action from the U.S. International Trade Commission, which will decide if these imports hurt the U.S. industry. The investigation covers all forms of phosphate fertilizers from Morocco, excluding specific industrial grade types and other non-applicable goods.

The U.S. Department of Commerce has amended the final results of a review on countervailing duties for phosphate fertilizers from Morocco. This amendment is due to a ministerial error where certain debt costs were not included in OCP's production costs when calculating profits for phosphate rock mining. The correction results in a revised subsidy rate. Commerce plans to inform U.S. Customs and Border Protection about these changes, affecting future import duties on these fertilizers.
