While in the past five acres of land were enough to feed two people, in 2030 the same area is expected to feed as many as six people. With this in mind, agricultural producers need to source new and effective ways to increase the soil’s fertility and support sustainable food sourcing. In this changing landscape, fertilizers are becoming the new gold that is helping farmers to increase fertility and to get the most out of the soil.
Haver & Boecker is at the forefront, developing innovative mineral processing technology for the fertilizer industry. Explore our products and successful realized projectsfrom mine to market, and join us in revolutionizing agriculture for a sustainable future!
Soil, the silent hero, is the foundation of agricultural success. Its complex composition of important elements like nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and other various micronutrients is crucial for fertility, general health and plant growth. In the face of global population growth and increasing drought stress, optimising plant nutrition is becoming more and more important. This is where the well-known principle in fertilizer production, Liebig’s Law of the Minimum, comes into play. It states that plant growth and health are not determined by the total amount of nutrients available in the soil but by the nutrient that is in shortest supply. Moreover, cultivable soil is increasingly disappearing due to building and paving. Soil improvement is essential for ensuring faster and healthier plant growth and meeting the needs of the growing population. This is where fertilizers, reffered to as ‘the new gold, come into play. Successfully addressing these challenges requires strong partnerships and cooperation within the industry and among all stakeholders seeking solutions. The seven main elements found in fertilizers include:
