  5. Slide 5: Collapse in NA phosphate shipments and use

    Collapse in NA phosphate shipments and use U.S. DAP/MAP shipments were less than the minimum of the five-year range in 8 months of the 2008/09 fertilizer year. Shipments were especially slow during the traditionally strong shipment months such as Oct, Nov, Mar, Apr and May. We estimate that U.S. pho

    Collapse in NA potash shipments and use NA MOP monthly shipments trended downward throughout the 2008/09 fertilizer year. Implied May shipments of about 230,000 tons KCL were approximately 1.0 million tons less than the three- year average for this peak shipping month. NA offshore exports also decli
