To secure the sound development of modern agriculture in the 21st century, the supply of fertilizers such as potassium is a key factor. Owing to the limited arable land in China, a vital measure to feed the country’s increasing population is the augmentation of fertilizers so as to gain higher per unit area grain yields. At present, for a fairly long time to come, additional fertilizer resources will mainly come from nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers.
