East China's Yantai Port entered its peak season for handling and distributing chemical fertilizers in March – an important time for spring agriculture and the start to ploughing across China.
A ship with 47,000 tons of imported potash fertilizer finished unloading on March 7 and the cargo will now go to China's agricultural market to ensure it meets the demand for spring agricultural materials.
China is the world's largest consumer of potash fertilizer and Yantai Port is an important distribution center for chemical fertilizers in China. Since the start of the year, Yantai Port has handled 103,000 tons of imported potash fertilizer.
In the peak season, the daily volume of domestic sales can reach more than 3,000 tons, benefiting agricultural customers within more than 100 square kilometers of Yantai.
