Myanmar is an important market for Yara Myanmar as productivity levels are low and farmers have not been utilising fertiliser the right way. Yara Myanmar will import nitrogen , phosphorus and potassium ( NPK ) fertiliser from Norway to help increase the productivity of local farmers and make local farmers less dependent on volatile changes in global food prices . Myanmar is a key market for Norway 's Yara as farmer productivity is just half that of neighbouring Thailand thanks to agricultural workers not using fertiliser properly . The company established itself in the country in September 2013 once the government allowed foreign fertiliser firms to trade there . Yara has since invested $ 500,000 in training programs and may consider setting up a fertiliser factory in the country in the future .
