Study in Nature Food suggests improved phosphorus use could extend phosphorus stocks beyond 500 years and boost global food production.

Study in Nature Food suggests improved phosphorus use could extend its stocks beyond 500 years and boost global food production. Currently, 30-40% of farm soils have over-applications of phosphorus, with Europe and North America over-applying the most. The global population is set to hit nearly 10 billion by 2050, necessitating more efficient phosphorus usage to sustain crop yields.
