Rock phosphate input
 Jens Aune (Noragric) | 26.01.2007

Several Sahelian countries have good rock phosphate deposits. The problem is that this fertilizer is in a powder form and the application becomes difficult making it difficult to persuade farmers to use this fertilizer. Access to natural phosphate is often difficult in Sahelian countries given that several mines are no longer operational.
