Product Overview
Importers and cooperative networks request CAN 27 bulk price from a nitrogen fertilizer supplier — calcium ammonium nitrate (CAN 26/27) delivers roughly half its nitrogen as immediately available nitrate and half as ammonium, alongside 20% calcium oxide that supports cell-wall development and provides a mild liming effect on acid soils. Eastern European and Central Asian buyers use CAN 26/27 as the primary spring top-dress for winter wheat, rapeseed, sugar beet and maize where soil pH sits below 6.5.
Compared with straight ammonium nitrate, the limestone diluent lowers oxidizing intensity and improves granule hardness — an advantage in humid storage and long rail transit across CIS corridors. Origins include Russian, Belarusian and EU production; we source against contract specification with mill certificate of analysis per lot. Importers, cooperatives and state tender desks receive FOB, CFR or CIF quotations with vessel loading windows aligned to seasonal demand peaks in Q1–Q2.

Loading Ports & Logistics
Contract MOQ 1,000 MT ships as 50 kg PP bags or 1,000 kg FIBC in containers for CIS farm-gate distributors, or on geared handysize and panamax bulkers from 3,000–30,000 MT at Novorossiysk, Taman, Odessa region and Baltic ports. CFR and CIF terms include ocean freight to Alexandria, Mersin, Mumbai, Chittagong and West African hubs.
Standard contract lead time is 14–30 days from payment instrument confirmation to laycan opening. Partial lots below 3,000 MT on bulk routes may incur freight premium on CFR terms. Storage at origin and destination must follow national fertilizer and explosive-precursor regulations — segregate from fuel, organics and combustibles.
Packaging & Documentation
Bulk shipment in vessel holds is standard for deep-sea export. Bagged delivery available in 50 kg PP bags with PE liner or 1,000 kg FIBC big bags for farm-gate and inland distribution markets. Each lot ships with commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, certificate of origin and mill COA confirming N fractions, CaO and moisture. SGS or equivalent pre-shipment inspection on request. Phytosanitary certificate issued where importing country requires it.
FAQ — Calcium Ammonium Nitrate CAN 26/27
When should buyers choose CAN 26/27 over straight ammonium nitrate?
CAN 26/27 suits acid and neutral soils where the 20% CaO fraction buffers pH while delivering balanced nitrate and ammonium nitrogen. On alkaline calcareous soils, urea or AN may be more cost-effective; CAN is preferred where calcium nutrition and mild liming reduce separate lime applications.
What vessel parcel sizes work for bulk CAN from Black Sea ports?
Typical CAN parcels range from 3,000 MT on handysize feeders to 25,000–30,000 MT on Panamax bulkers. Loading rates of 8,000–12,000 MT/day are common at Novorossiysk and Baltic terminals; we align contract quantity with berth draft and receiver discharge capability.
How is CAN 26/27 packaged for CIS farm-gate delivery versus deep-sea bulk?
Deep-sea export moves in bulk vessel holds with anti-caking treatment. Regional CIS and Central Asian buyers often take 50 kg PP bags or 1,000 kg FIBC big bags for rail and truck distribution. Packaging is fixed in the sales contract before vessel nomination.
