Global security and the fertilizer industry

Fertilizer use will remain essential for ensuring food security and protecting the natural resource base. In fulfilling that future role, the focus should be on "growth with management" This means not only the management of fertilizer nutrients on the farm, but also the management of all physical, human, financial, organization, and policy resources that comprise the fertilizer sector. In the end "better management" will promote efficiency, equity, and fiscal prudence, and help us reach our goals of food security, agricultural growth, and environmental protection.
