This report, presented by Patrick Heffer at the 76th IFA Annual Conference in Vienna (May 2008), provides an in-depth analysis of the global agriculture and fertilizer demand outlook from 2007/08 to 2012/13. It covers trends in world cereal production, livestock product consumption, and the evolving dynamics of fertilizer demand, particularly in East and South Asia. The report highlights the implications of biofuels on fertilizer use and the trajectory of crop production growth rates.
