Abstract

[eng] « Fertilizers' use, 150 years old, gained its importance in the last twenty years, with a growing world population, its urbanisation and a consciousness of its poverty. Intensification, through fertilizers' use, of scare resources of land and water will increase the needs of the next twenty years. Nevertheless, there is a crisis within the fertilizers' industry : market déstabilisation through international prices movements, growing costs disparities according to raw material access. What will happen with rural development programs on one side, and industry's investment prog ram m on the other ? ». [fre] « L'emploi des engrais industriels, vieux d'un siècle et demi, n'a pris son ampleur que sur les vingt dernières années, avec la croissance de la population mondiale, son urbanisation et la prise de conscience de son dénuement. Les besoins, au cours des vingt prochaines années, devront reposer plus encore sur l'intensification par l'engrais, de ces ressources rares que seront la terre et l'eau. Et cependant l'industrie des engrais est en crise : déstabilisation du marché par la fluctuation des cours internationaux, disparité des prix de revient liée au différentiel d'accès aux matières premières, programmes de développement rural d'un côté, programme d'investissement de l'autre y feront-ils face ? »
