The plant is scheduled to make the first batch of fertilizer in 2013, which will be exported back to Việt Nam.

Việt Nam spent US $969 million to import Russian goods in 2008, including US $156 million for fertilizers.

Now, the country is running 19 investment projects with the total registered capital of US $1.7 billion in Russia.

Among 46 foreign destinations for Vietnamese investors, Russia is the second biggest one, after Laos.

Several large-scale projects there include Rusvietpetro joint-venture company (US $1.25 billion), an oil exploring project in Nagumanov (US $255 million), Hà Nội Trade Center (US $120 million), and a tile producing mill (US $15 million).
