REUTERS - Indian Farmers Fertiliser Cooperative (IFFCO), India's largest fertilizer producer, said it was suspending plans for a nitrogen fertilizer factory in Becancour, Quebec as its cost estimate exceeded C$2 billion ($1.72 billion).

IFFCO and its Canadian partner La Coop federee, which had earlier estimated the project to cost C$1.6 billion, said they would look for partners to help build it.

IFFCO said in late 2012 it would partner the cooperative of farmers in Quebec to build the plant. (http://reut.rs/1zrNaeW)
