"There is no global organisation looking at global trends in phosphorus and how we're going to ensure we'll have phosphorus production into the future," she said.

Yeah there is. It's called a market economy. But, college professors don't believe in markets. They believe in the U.N., and Marxism.

Why is why they are constantly howling about a "global crisis" of some sort.

Just remember folks: without constant crisis there is no need for control.

No not at all. It is a fertilizer and soil amender due to both the pottasium content and its most common contaminant, phosphorus.

Our glauconitic sands (from deposits of late Cretaceous to early Paleocene age) have negligible phosphate content.

The exponential growth in global food production has not only sent the price of fertilisers skyrocketing, but could lead to a world shortage of phosphate within decades.
