PotashCorp curtails output as market slumps

Canada’s largest producer of the crop nutrient potash, Potash Corporation of Saskatchewan, this week announced temporary production curtailments at its Allan and Lanigan operations, in an effort to match supply with market demand.
Saskatoon, Saskatchewan-based PotashCorp will curtail production at its Allan mine for four weeks, starting March 20. The mine, with a nameplate capacity of four-million tonnes of potassium chloride (KCl) a year, was forecast to produce 2.6-million tonnes in 2016.
