KEY POINT FTA:

“Sri Lanka is a relatively small island in the Indian Ocean that was forced to rely on imports for food after banning chemical fertilizers to create a fully “organic” agricultural industry last year.

President Gotabaya Rajapaksa recently apologized for the measure, calling it a “mistake.”

So have those restrictions favoring organic fertilizers now been revoked, or is the responsible authority still too busy apologizing?

[Fungi]

Bingo. Beat me to it it. Government solution to a non existent problem. Let freedom ring.

[Jonty30]

Such mistakes should never allow for apologies.

[Mr Radical]

President Gotabaya Rajapaksa recently apologized for the measure, calling it a "mistake."

I'm sure, as usual, "lessons will be learned."
NOT.

Currently, sourced from natural gas, Russia produces about a third of the world's fertilisers. The price from other producers is rising rapidly. Countries like Sri Lanka are going to have to make a choice; wonder which way they will go?
