1 Energy Efficiency and Food Security for All - The Impact of Fertilizer Amit Roy Presented by Don Crane
2 Global Population Growth There will be more than 9 billion people living in the world by Source: United Nations Estimates
3 To meet the demand and prevent hunger and malnutrition, global food production must increase by 70% and possibly double by 2050, using less land and water while decreasing environmental protection. Source: Guardian, 2007, Global Food Crisis Looms as Climate Change and Population Growth Strip Fertile Land
4 Two Ways to Meet Food Production Needs Increase the area under cultivation Intensify farm production
5 Take Away Message The world cannot afford to continue: Wasting natural resources Polluting the environment Therefore: We must improve the Therefore: We must improve the efficiency of food production
6 Why Improve Fertilizer Production and Use Efficiency? i Growth in World s Demand for Fertilizer 1.2 billion metric tons fertilizer-n consumption over the next decade. Total N 102 million tons Total P 2 O million tons Low Efficiency 30%-40% of N applied to cereals in developing countries is used by crops % for initial P application Total K 2 O million tons
7 Energy Inputs Into Important Fertilizers Sources: Jenssen and Kongshaug, 2003; Woods, J. et al
8 Urea N Energy (U.S. bbl of oil/mt Urea N) a a. 1 U.S. bbl of crude oil = 6.12 GJ Source:, 2009
9 Urea production requires fossil fuels. Current methods require the equivalent of four barrels of oil to produce one ton of urea. Urea = 46% Nitrogen
10
11 What Are the Energy and Environmental Implications for N Use Efficiencies and What Are the Mechanisms of Actions? Adoption of 4Rs and Integrated Soil Fertility Management (ISFM) Introduction of smart new products Introduction of NUE genes in crops Introduction of biological nitrogen fixation into non-legume crops
