PHOSPHATE IN EGYPT
Phosphorus is one of the minerals that plants need to flourish. Despite its moderate availability in nature, most soils, particularly calcareous soils, are nutrient-deficient. The least expensive form of phosphorus fertilizer is phosphate rock (PR). Both igneous and sedimentary processes can produce phosphate rock sources.
The Red Sea, the Western Desert, and Sebaiya (in the Nile Valley) are where you can find natural phosphate rock in Egypt. The PR dissolves more effectively in soil with higher levels of organic matter. PR is especially well suited for use with legumes. Environmentally speaking, biological solubilization of phosphate rock is preferable to acidulation.
Egypt produces roughly 6 million tons of phosphate annually and contains about 4% of the world’s phosphate reserves (2.78 billion tons). The paying zone is located between latitudes 24° 30′ and 26° 50′ N, while the phosphate resources in Egypt are located between latitudes 23° 10′ and 30° 50′ N.
