In co-operation with the International Fertilizer Association (IFA), the African Fertilizer Agribusiness Partnership (AFAP), the International Fertilizer Development Center (IFDC) and the AfricanFertilizer.org (AFO), I have developed an Africa Fertilizer Map which displays trade flows of various fertilizer products into and from Africa and consumption data/projections, together with major plants and projects, ports, rail and truck facilities and the main trade corridors in Sub-Sahara Africa.
The map was sponsored by one of the world largest phosphate producers, Ma’aden of Saudi Arabia, and was distributed at the IFA 85th Annual conference in Marrakech 21-24 May, which was hosted by OCP, Morocco’s phosphate producer and active player in the development of Sub Sahara Africa. About 1,160 delegates attended from 72 countries and 441 companies. A dozen medium-sized companies involved in the fertilizer value chain in Sub-Sahara Africa were invited. The map is an excellent tool to develop awareness and provide data on Africa, particularly on Africa Sub-Sahara, as well as profiling companies active in this key sector of fertilizer growth. The map will soon be displayed on the websites of all associations involved.
