World nitrogen fertilizer consumption
Nitrogen is the most consumed nutrient, due to its important role in crop production. Indeed, N is an important component of many structural, genetic and metabolic compounds in plant cells.
Urea (46-0-0) is currently the most popular N fertilizer source with about 54 percent of the world market and represents the major sectoral growth in the nitrogen industry. The growth in demand has stimulated a growth in production.
World phosphate fertilizer consumption
The trend in phosphate consumption by product shows that diammonium phosphate (DAP) is the most consumed P fertilizer worldwide, representing than 50% of the market, due to its high P and N concentration. The single superphosphare (SSP) used to be the leading product but it has been bypassed by high-analysis P fertilizers, such as ammonium phosphates (like DAP).
World potash consumption
The most used K fertilizer product worldwide is potassium chloride, also known as muriate of potash (MOP). It accounts for almost 70 percent of all demand for K fertilizers. In some countries, such as the United States, Brazil or India, it accounts for more than 90 percent of all K fertilizer sold.
