Nitrogen, phosphate and potash statistics

1973-1973/74 to 2005-2005/06

IFADATA statistics available on cd-rom and online

IFADATA is a compilation of statistics on mineral fertilizers. It comprises statistics on the production, imports, exports and consumption of nitrogen, phosphate and potash fertilizers, by country / region / world, product by product, from 1973/74 to 2005/2006 with 1961/62 as a base year (between 1961/62 and 1973/74 only the totals for nitrogen, phosphate and potash are given). The figures are given in term of nutrients N, P2O5 and K2O.

The consumption statistics (only) are available online on the IFA web site. The statistics are provided in EXCEL format.

Restricted to IFA members only
The complete IFADATA statistics are available on a cd-rom, which can be sent on request.

Detailed statistics on fertilizers raw materials and intermediates are restricted to IFA members but some regional information is given in the "Fertilizer Indicators".

List of years

Some countries issue their statistics on a calendar year, January to December, basis, others on a split year, July to June basis.

For the preparation of regional and world totals the calendar year figures are grouped with the first half of the split year figures e.g. 2004 with 2005/2006.
