Predictions for record fertilizer sales
ST. LOUIS, Mo. - A fer
tilizer industry spokesman
said that members of his in
dustry have “grossly
underestimated” the ability
of America’s farmers to
operate in adversity during
the past and ,he predicted
that next season would be a
record-high year for fer
tilizer sales.
President of The Fertilizer
Institute) Edwin M. Wheeler,
in remarks before the Ten
nessee Valley Authority
(TVA) Fertilizer Conference
and TFI Trade Fair, said
producers and dealers

should recognize that
fanners have made substan
tial investments in land and
machinery and they “are go
ing to get that crop in,”
regardless of weather or a
shortened planting season.
“This means, then,”
Wheeler said, “that the fer
tilizer dealers must do a bet
ter job m planning for inven
tories that can handle a short
season.
“We in the industry, and
particularly in the retail
level, are simply not expan

with the steady, certain
growth of the market,” he
said.
Wheeler told the national
gathering of fertilizer and
equipment dealers that the
fertilizer outlook for 1980 is,
“somewhere between good
and tremendous”
forecasting the best tonnage
year m the industry’s history
- 53 million tons.
The reasons for his op
timism, he said, were that
ter net income than they
have in several years and
that they are showing
confidence by buying more
equipment and contacting
dealers at an early date.
Beyond this, Wheeler said
that abandonment of a
government -set-aside
program will bring poorer,
less fertile land back into
production, requiring
comparatively large
amounts of fertilizer for best
crop fields.
He cautioned dealers to
remember that farm
operating costs have risen
dramatically and retailers
should fully discuss then
credit policies with farmers.
With farmers looking for
possible ways to cut costs,
dealers should work closely
with them to assure that fer
tilizer application is not
reduced, thus reducing yield
potential, he warned.

based association, represen

manufacturers, equipment
manufacturers and retailers
