A reclusive Russian billionaire is attempting to create a rival to Potash Corp. (POT-T116.49----%), a move that could buoy fertilizer prices and consolidate control of the global potash market.

Suleiman Kerimov, an oligarch who has a seat in the upper house of Russia’s parliament, wants to combine potash producers that had been split apart in the last years of the Soviet Union.

If he succeeds, his combined company would be nearly as big as Potash Corp., the world’s largest producer of potash, a key fertilizer for crops such as corn. The two companies could control supply and steady prices.

But it’s not yet clear whether Mr. Kerimov wants to win market share by selling larger volumes at lower prices or if his aim is to propel fertilizer prices higher with his expanded market clout.

“We don’t know how they’re going to act,” said analyst Charles Neivert of investment bank Dahlman Rose & Co. in New York.

“Russia is always difficult to handicap, in terms of how things will go, because you don’t understand all the connections, where sovereign and political issues might take precedence over economic issues.”...

...Reports from Russia indicate the Kremlin wants Belaruskali, another potash producer, to also become part of Mr. Kerimov’s potash empire...

Well, it seems to become even more urgent for China to become independant from the arch rival Russia in the case of future food production.
