Environmental Concerns with Potash • Potash fertilizer has no significant impacts on water or air quality • Adequate potash is required for plants to use other essential nutrients. Healthy crop growth and efficient nutrient recovery results from balanced nutrition • Potash applications should be guided by soil and plant tissue testing where possible • Mine tailings require management to avoid off-site movement of salt and water
