Market Growth Factors

A key driver of demand is the expansion and diversification of the agricultural sector across the Australian continent· Broadacre grain and pulse farming in Western Australia and New South Wales, together with high-value horticulture in Victoria and Queensland, support stable fertilizer demand· The production of export crops such as wheat, barley, canola, and cotton, which combine quantity with quality of final product, has encouraged an increase in the use of fertilizers promoting root, flower, and fruit development, and newer crops such as avocados and almonds, have further increased this demand·

Soil quality and nutrient deficiency is another limiting factor· Natural soils in Western Australia and the Northern Territory are already low in nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium but agricultural practices have not sufficiently returned nutrients to the soil, either through residues or fertilizers· As a result, fertilizers need to be applied for soil replenishment· Soil tests and agronomic guidelines are increasingly used by farmers to determine the type and amount required· The tendency for leaching and nutrient retention problems with the sandy and often acidic soils of southern and coastal Australia has made customary NPK and micronutrient-amended fertilizer programs a common agricultural input·
