Project Design

The project takes a supply chain approach to ensure a global, comprehensive understanding of the issues surrounding P. To date, much of the focus on P has been on its use, waste and recycling. Issues related to other facets of the P supply chain (i.e., exploration, production and processing of P into fertilizers and other products, and its trade, transport and finance) have received far less attention. However, the most effective interventions to improve sustainability in P management can only be identified after a comprehensive assessment of the issues across the entire supply chain.
