Indian officials say that current fertilizer inventories are plentiful, including urea, DAP, potash and NPKs, according to a report in the Business Standard, citing Union Minister for Chemicals and Fertilizers D.V. Sadananda Gowda. He also stated that there is currently no proposal at present to decrease the amount of subsidies on fertilizers. In addition, there is no proposal to fix a Nutrient Based Subsidy (NBS) for urea and thereby decontrol the price of urea in the market.
The Fertilizer Institute said June 25 that a leadership transition is underway after the announcement that TFI President and CEO Chris Jahn has been selected to serve as the President and CEO of the American Chemistry Council (ACC). To ensure a smooth transition, Jahn will continue to lead TFI until late October.
TFI’s Executive Committee will establish a Search Committee that will operate under the leadership of TFI Board Chairman Tony Will. On behalf of TFI’s Board of Directors, I extend my thanks to Chris for his work on our industry’s behalf,” said Will. “TFI staff is dedicated to serving our industry and we anticipate continued excellence during the transition and beyond on our agenda to help feed the world in a safe and sustainable manner.”
The American Chemistry Council (ACC) announced June 25 that Christopher L. Jahn has been selected to become its next president and CEO, effective late October 2019. Jahn currently serves as President and CEO of The Fertilizer Institute (TFI) and will succeed Cal Dooley who has led ACC since 2008. Dooley announced his retirement in April, 2018.
