Explore how potassium fuels global agriculture

BEIJING, Sept. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Did you know that Dead Sea salt not only provides healthy living, but also plays an important role in global agriculture due to its high potassium content?

Potassium is an essential nutrient for plant growth, and potassium fertilizer significantly increases crop yields and improves quality. It helps produce fuller fruits and more vibrant colors, ultimately improving overall crop health and productivity.

Jordan, which benefits from its proximity to the Dead Sea, is rich in potassium salt resources. This abundance has propelled the Arab Potash Company (APC) to become the eighth largest potash producer in the world. APC produces 2.8 million tons of potassium chloride annually, which is distributed worldwide and helps ensure global food security.

In this video, Egyptian vlogger Mohamed Jihad takes us on an insightful journey to APC in Jordan. Mohamed explores the company’s extensive production facilities near the Dead Sea, visits its state-of-the-art R&D center, and observes the central control room where all operations are managed. By closely observing the intricate potash production process, he understands the crucial role of potash in global food security. This project, a joint venture between China and Jordan, is an example of successful economic cooperation between the two countries.
