| General comment | Potash is a type of high-potassium fertilizer that includes water-soluble potassium from mined and/or manufactured sources. It commonly contains potassium carbonate and potassium chloride. It is a potassium-rich salt that is formed in underground deposits from evaporated seabeds, where it is then mined. Potassium is considered an essential element for all plants, animals and humans. It is mainly used as a fertilizer to encourage water retention in plants, increase crop yields, and improve taste. |
