Global potash market: Increasing demand for potassium chloride
The global potassium chloride market is growing at an unprecedented rate and is expected to reach 83.34 million tons by 2023. Potassium chloride provides crops with two nutrients, potassium and chlorine, essential for both plants and animals. It is the most concentrated form of granular potassium and the most economic potassium fertilizer. Potassium chloride, along with other nitrogen-based fertilizers, help improve plant yield and quality. As the demand for food is increasing rapidly and there is a high demand for high-yield and good quality crops, the adoption of potassium chloride will increase significantly during the forecast period.
According to a senior analyst at Technavio, "The growing population in APAC and increase in the per capita income are driving the demand for food and agricultural products. Several APAC governments are coming up with subsidies and incentive schemes to increase the production of food products. These initiatives will play a pivotal role in the growth of the global potash market during the forecast period."
