Australia has secured thousands of tonnes of urea from Indonesia, helping the country to cope with delivery disruptions caused by the U.S. and Iranian blockades of the Strait of Hormuz.

This comes as the Labor government has helped brokered a deal between Incitec Pivot Fertilisers and PT Pupuk Indonesia during Prime Minister Anthony Albanese’s visit to the Southeast Asian nation.
