Recently Rubymar, a cargo ship that was carrying 21,000 tonnes of ammonium phosphate sulphate was sunk due to the attack by the Houthi missiles.

Ammonium phosphate sulphate is a fertilizer made by neutralizing sulphuric acid and phosphoric acid with ammonia.
It's a complex fertilizer that contains nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulphur.
Urea is the most important nitrogenous fertilizer in the country because of its high N content (46%N).
Urea is a white crystalline organic chemical compound with neutral pH.
DAP is the 2nd most commonly used fertiliser in India after urea and farmers normally apply this fertiliser just before or at the beginning of sowing.
It is the most preferred fertilizer in drill-sown areas.
It is recommended for cereals, pulses, oilseeds and commercial cash crops.
Having combination of Sulphur elements it has very specific importance for the crops like Paddy, Sugarcane, Banana, Oilseeds, Tobacco, Potato and all kinds of vegetables.
