Indian Farmers Fertiliser Cooperative Ltd (Iffco) has raised $336m of debt that will allow it to construct a phosphoric acid plant at Eshidiya in Jordan.
The scheme will be constructed as a joint venture between Iffco and Jordan Phosphates Mines Company (JPMC) and will be called the Jordan India Fertilizer Company (Jifco). Iffco will retain 52 per cent of the company, with JPMC taking the remainder.
