Regional chemical fertilizer shipments fell to 994,000 tons in September, down from 3.41 million tons a year earlier, according to Kpler data cited by Press TV. A UKMTO weekly assessment also found shipping traffic in the Strait of Hormuz still about 70 percent below pre-war levels. Press TV is the only outlet reporting the fertilizer figures, and the shipping estimate comes from a single UKMTO assessment as reported by Press TV. The reports tie the declines to the closure of the Strait during the US-Israeli war on Iran, and neither gives a timeline for a reopening.
