About this data
Methodology: tradeDefinitions5
- Trade
- Sum of all reported bilateral flows of the product in the year, in tonnes of product, after FertRadar adjustments (phantom tonnes imputed, reclassifications, duplicate codes removed).
- Unit value
- Value divided by quantity over flows with a quantity. A customs average across contracts and grades, not a market price.
- World share
- Share of the world total of the same year, in tonnes of product.
- Supplier concentration
- Herfindahl-Hirschman index of the suppliers' shares (0 to 10,000): above 2,500 concentrated, 1,500 to 2,500 moderate.
- Why this page
- Country and product pages are built when imports or exports reach at least 50 kt (tonnes of product) in 2024.
Sources and reliability3
Official statistics and the producers' own documents only, cleaned and reconciled by FertRadar. Every figure keeps a reference to its document, and every correction to the customs data is documented one by one.
- CEPII, BACI (Etalab Open Licence 2.0)
- United Nations Statistics Division, UN Comtrade
- Documents cited by the adjustments: CEPII; USGS
The document, page and date behind each figure are listed in the Pro data files. Sources and licences
Adjustments to the customs data1
FertRadar corrects, reclassifies or annotates customs flows only on documented evidence. Those touching this page: 1 reclassification; 1 confirmed by a published figure.
Notes7
- That is 2.0% of world ammonia exports, making Malaysia the 16th largest exporter.
- Thailand was the main destination, with 131 kt (39% of the total).
- The average customs unit value of these exports was 373 USD/t, against 393 USD/t in 2024.
- Trade figures: CEPII BACI with the FertRadar adjustments listed on this page. Tonnes of product unless stated; kt = thousand tonnes, Mt = million tonnes.
- 2025 is a FertRadar estimate from the monthly customs declarations (UN Comtrade), hatched in the charts. Replaced by the annual data when published.
- Values exclude freight and insurance (FOB equivalent). Unit values are customs averages over shipments under different contracts, not market prices.
- Publication rules: routes shown when above 1% of the total or 10,000 t (the rest under "others"); unit values only for at least 1,000 t; year-on-year changes only when both years are at least 1,000 t; supplier concentration only for importers of at least 50,000 t.
