Abstract
The purpose of the article is to analyze the changes in the global mineral fertilizer market due to the imposed restrictions, as well as to determine quantitative indicators indicating the transformation of this market. The study allows us to conclude that the structure of global production and consumption of mineral fertilizers is generally stable, which is due to macroeconomic factors in the functioning of this market, including a high concentration of production in a limited number of countries and consumer dependence. International trade in mineral fertilizers retains its traditional destinations, the largest exporters are the Russian Federation, China, the USA, Belarus and Canada, the main importers are India, the USA and Brazil. The greatest transformation is observed in European countries, associated with a sharp reduction in the production of nitrogen fertilizers and a reduction in imports of potash and phosphate fertilizers. The production of nitrogen fertilizers in Europe was suspended in mid-2022 due to rising natural gas prices. An assessment of the transformation of international exchange showed the active use of import diversification strategies by countries that consume mineral fertilizers: in particular, a significant part of large importers from Latin America are reorienting supplies to the United States and Canada, and the intermediary activity of Central Asian states is increasing.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
