China Chemical Fertilisers Sector Report 2018/2022

China is the world's most populous country and the largest producer and consumer of fertilisers. The country consumes more than a third of the world’s fertilisers, which is equivalent to the combined consumption of the US and India. The country needs fertilisers to satisfy its growing demand for crops and other agricultural products. In the 2014-2015 crop year, China used 43% of its fertilisers on cereal crops (rice, wheat and corn) and 37% on growing fruits and vegetables, according to the latest data published by the International Fertilizer Industry Association (IFA) in November 2017. The country has only 7% of the world’s arable land so it has been using chemical fertilisers heavily to boost crop yields and scale up agricultural production. The excessive use of chemical fertilisers, however, is raising environmental and food safety concerns.
