    Sept 2 (Reuters) - Australian agricultural chemicals maker Nufarm Ltd (NUF) on Wednesday warned of an up to 31% drop in its full-year underlying earnings due to a writedown of its Europe assets owed to lower earnings outlook and rising costs.

    The company flagged an impairment charge of about A$215 million ($158.52 million), after hot, dry weather hurt demand for crop protection, and the coronavirus outbreak weakened demand in ornamental markets during the second-half of the year.

    Nufarm expects fiscal 2020 underlying core earnings of between A$290 million and A$300 million, compared with A$420.3 million a year earlier.
