Ron: Doesn't Saskatchewan have potash that is used as fertilizer or am I not understanding its use. Or, is it mixed with something else that makes it fertilizer. The only reason I'm asking is that there seems to be a panic by certain media and/or podcasters that are concerned about the growing season this year. But I wonder why if we have everything needed for the farmers - or do we? I thought you'd likely know. thanks.

Potash is one of the three important fertilizers…nutrients…it’s essential but so are the others. Petros I’m sure can correct or explain this on this one better than I.

(Think of lawn fertilizer with those three numbers on it….what potash contains is one of those numbers…with the others being nitrogen and phosphorus)

I'm not a farmer, I tend soil as agrarian. We use two fertilizers, N and and K with K covered in S that feeds the biome that farts P.

Sound cool?
