About two-thirds of this tonnage was in the form of muriate of potash (60-63% KiO), a form highly concentrated to reduce the Farmer's fertilizer freight bill. Immediately upon the outbreak of war in 1939, the American Potash Industry began a rapid increase in production capacity. This expansion program is still continuing to meet the demands for increased food production -FOOD for V/CTOHY. “WSICSM POTASH INSTITUTE, INC. @9 ’••iGifc g t . w# w ‘WASHINGTON, D. C l||pF
