Analysis
In 2024, nutrient nitrogen n (total) — agricultural use in Eastern Europe stood at 6.42 million t.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 1.3% on the previous year and up 26.0% over ten years.
Over the whole period, nutrient nitrogen n (total) — agricultural use in Eastern Europe peaked at 15.65 million t in 1988 and was at its lowest, 1.74 million t, in 1961.
That places Eastern Europe 13th out of 33 groups with data for 2024, putting it in the middle of the range.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

About this data
The Fertilizers by Nutrient dataset contains information on the totals in nutrients for Production, Trade and Agriculture Use of inorganic (chemical or mineral) fertilizers. The data are provided for the three primary plant nutrients: nitrogen (N), phosphorus (expressed as P2O5) and potassium (expressed as K2O). Both straight and compound fertilizers are included.
