China is the major supplier of urea to the Asia-Pacific region, however, the nation has recently massively scaled back exports of the item in a bid to reduce domestic fertiliser prices. That’s because urea also a major component in fertiliser due to its high nitrogen levels.

Australia is a substantial importer of urea, with 80 per cent of our supply coming from China – and while we do create some urea locally, it’s not enough to address the issue.

Now, Australia is about to feel the pinch, with those in the know about the looming crisis affecting AdBlue reportedly attempting to stockpile supplies.

However, it is understood there is not enough product available to avert the problem, with rumours swirling that supplies could dwindle to critical levels within weeks, or by March 2022 at the latest.
