The article discusses the current and future demand for phosphate fertilizer in China for agricultural production. The researchers found that China currently needs around 10 million tons of phosphate fertilizer per year, and this demand is expected to remain the same by 2010. To meet this demand, they suggest focusing on increasing monoammonium phosphate, diammonium phosphate, and NPKs, maintaining FMP, and reducing SSP.
