Yara International ASA announced on June 14 that it is postponing the planned expansion project at its production plant in Belle Plaine, Canada. Yara views the Belle Plaine site in Saskatchewan as an optimal location for a future North American nitrogen expansion, but will spend more time evaluating construction cost development and other key project parameters. "We are not ready to initiate a Belle Plaine expansion today, primarily due to recent increases in construction cost both in Canada and North America generally," said Jorgen Ole Haslestad, Yara president and CEO. "There is also a significant risk of future nitrogen over-supply in North America as new project initiatives are announced, despite deteriorating project profitability."
