United Arab EmiratesThe Moroccan state-controlled company OCP, the largest producer of phosphate fertilizers in the world, will set up a regional centre in Romania, under a partnership with the Al Dahra group from the United Arab Emirates, which operates the largest farms in the country through local company Agricost Brăila.
OCP and Al Dahra will set up a joint venture in Romania, to be named SEEFCO (South East European Fertilizer Company), local Profit.ro reported. The joint-venture will have a capital of USD 5 million and will import, store and distribute chemical fertilizers, both in Romania and other markets in the region.
