Return To Main Page Phosphate, The
key
to nutrient efficiency.
So you are a crop producer and do not want to spend more than 12% of your
gross income for NPKS and Zinc.
The Idaho Phosphate Reserve, Soda Springs, Idaho. Jordan Florida. There absolutely is no shortage of Phosphate Rock in the US, and World Wide.
There is no replacement for Phosphate in the production of high yielding
crops. Morocco has the greatest Phosphate reserves in the world. The USA phosphate producers do not allow free market access to the North American markets from such countries as Morocco. Morocco’s attempts to penetrate the business of phosphate distribution in the US have been futile. The fertilizer business may seem confusing. Just remember “they have got it and you don’t”. Hedge fund managers want your money at ridiculous rates of return. A New Era is emerging….driven by economics and local control of nutrients. The most efficient use of Potassium is a fluid flow at deep banding depths of 6 to 8 inches in high quality soils. Potassium Thio-Sulfate as TAPPKTS plus Zinc is up to 500% more efficient compared to top dress application of muriate of potash, KCL. Why is Exactrix KTS® so efficient? The answer is, Uniformity of streaming flow 1%CV application, Sulfur, Micronutrients and ammonization chemistry formulated into a crystalline material in the root zone…and on your farm land.
There is no free market in Potash. North American Potash is monopolistic by region. Department of Justice investigations are always ongoing regarding the pricing of Potash. Potash is controlled by two companies in North America, Mosaic and Nutrien. Price fixing historically occurs with the involvement of these two companies supported by the government of Saskatchewan. The Canadian Pacific or the Potash Railroad (Spokane International) is a key part of the Saskatchewan government export business plan via Portland, Oregon, Vancouver, BC and the CN to New Brunswick Atlantic Ports. Similar railroads (Unit Trains) that haul primarily Potash are under development in Argentina. The Argentine government is problematic for outside investment to complete the mine and railroad. Once again Potash is very dependent on transportation, timely delivery using railroads and with support from their government. Passing CP Potash train while on the "Rocky Mountaineer". - YouTube
