The interim inspection of Uralkali’s operations for compliance with the Protect & Sustain Standard demonstrates that Uralkali continues to operate responsibly, guided by global best practice in the production, transportation and sales of potash fertilizers. It also confirms the Company’s commitment to best practice in product stewardship.
