Potash Expansion Program

We’re expanding our operations to meet growing needs. We expect that when expansion is complete in 2021, we’ll have boosted our annual potash capacity by 50 percent, we’ll have created 500 new permanent full-time jobs, and we’ll have spent almost $6 billion. Most importantly, we’ll be able to help farmers around the world produce the food we all need.
