2023 Guidance
As previously described, potash trends did not meet the market's expectations after the Ukraine war, reflecting in decreasing fertilizer prices and
lower demand throughout 2022. The price of potash has been on a downward trend since late 2022, with a decrease of 47% in 2022 average KCI
CFR Brasil price, compared to the current price, leading farmers to holdback potash purchases with the expectation of even lower prices in the
near future.
Verde's guidance for 2023 is described in the table below:
