There ha* been much criticism of
Aie price at < which the armf ord
nance plants and Tennessee Vallejr |
, authority are dis|
»um nitrate for
of ammoni-
disposing oi
fertilixer—$50 per ton
if.o.b. plant
Nitrofen produced by the Canadi-
Barrow Lyons
an Dei>artment of Munitkms and
Supply is being
transported, some
of it more than
3,000 miles from
Calgary, Alberta,
and is delivered in
the United States
at from $40.29 to
$50 a ton. The Ca
nadians say ^ey
are not selling be
low cost—subsidis
ing ths American
farmer — but the
freight from Cal
gary to the southern seaboard oh fer-
^izer ammonium nitrate b between
$10 and $20 a ton.
The army ordnance plants began
delivery in quantity in November,
1943. For the first three months
they sold directly to TVA who con
tracted ,with Associated Coopera
tives, Inc., set up by a group of
farmers’ cooperatives, to seU th*
nitrogen to fertilizer manufactur
ers at $49 a ton. As of February 1,
thb year, the army ceased to sell
directly to TVA but now sells to
ths Commodity Credit corporation,
which, in turn, seUa to ths coopera
tive. The'priM has been rais^ to
$50 a ton to allow a dollar for bsight
aqualization.
Ciua to Coat
Th* Tannessea Valley authority
has given one clue as to ths cost of
the fertiliser. On November 7, 1943,
nt hearings before a subcommittee
of the house committee on appropri-
otioosr n table- wan-submittad which
showed that the cost of limed am
monium nitrate manufactured in
TVA plants was $37.83, exclusive of
admlnbtrative and depreciation
charges.
i In another table TVA showed that
lit expected to ^ow net cash income
before depreciation of $248,000 In fis
cal 1944 on the production of fer-
itilimr and war chemicab despite in
tension of an expense of $900,000 for
research work. Apparentiy the en
tire post of research is being
{Charged for budget purposes as a
current expense on all chemical op-
lerationa. In 1943 a loss of $813,000
.was shown, and a loss of $338,000 for
<1946 ia estimated.
There has oeen moeb dilBcxilty la
dealing with the army, which is not
set 19 to do erdiaary commercial
buaiaeas. It prefers to adl to a gov^
emment oorporatloo rather tima di
rectly to eommerdal oonoeras. Its
ordaance plants srer* bum to the
emergency to assure ample nitrogen
production for exfdosives, but the
operating capacity was found to be
far greater than needed—hence ni
trogen hM become available for fer-
tilinBr.
The constructioo of army ord
nance plants has created a problem
in disposal of the plants after the
war. Some in the fertilizer industry
believe that the nitrogen producing
capacity of th* country after the war
will be far in excess of requirements
for peacetime industrial purposes
and agriculture, and advocate scrap
ping some of the army nitrogen
plants after the war.
lo fact, the newest plant—the cac
tus ordnance plant near Etten, Tex
as—already has be» converted to
production of other products, and the
nitrogen equipment dismantled. Ef
forts are now being made to sell
this nitrogen producing equipment to
Egyptian interests.
It is pointed out that in 1939 indus
try consumed 230,000 tons of nitro
gen, while agriculture used 400,000
tons—a total of 630,000 tons.
700fi00-T6n Capacity
The present capacity of govern
ment is 700,000 tons of nitrogen a
‘year, and the capacity of private
plants amounts to Sp0,000 tons—a to
tal of 1,200,000 tons a year—almost
twice as much at ufaa used before
the war.
But this year some 675,000 tons of
idtrogen will be used in agricxilture
alone, and fertilizer use is increas
ing. Purdue university agronomists
recently calculated that if the state
of Indiana alone were to use as
much nitrogen in fertilizer as it
should, 178,000 tons would be con
sumed, against the 6,523 tons con
sumed in 1941. This may seem fan
tastic, but it indicates that there is
a cotuiderable future for the fertiliz
er industry; and that the 1,200,000
tons of plant capacity in the United
States may not be too great, if farm
ers wake up to the possibilities of
the most efficient use of fertilizer.
Agronomists also point out that
whra the proper us* ^ fertilizer be
comes mors general, farmers who
live near the large markets wUl pro
duce more abundantly; and that this
may tend to take part of th* market
from those who are further from the
centers of greatest consumption.
Also, as the'good land is cultivat
ed more intensively, the cost of
farming marginal land will become
increasintfy less profitable. TUs
may mean a more rapid conversion
of marginal lands into pastures ifm!
wood lots, with possible shifting of
population in some areas.
