Weeping Water
PotashCorp is the world's largest supplier of phosphate mineral supplements for livestock and poultry feeds. PotashCorp offers a full line of feed phosphate products including Dical (18.5% P dicalcium phosphate), Monocal (21% P monocalcium phosphate), DFP (18% P tricalcium phosphate), MAP (24% monoammonium phosphate) and feed grade phosphoric acid. In addition to the feed products produced by PotashCorp Phosphate, feed grade urea is provided by the PCS Nitrogen division.

Feed phosphates make up about 20% of all PotashCorp's phosphate sales. Dical and Monocal are produced at five US production sites located at Weeping Water, NE; Marseilles, IL; White Springs, FL; Joplin, MO; and Aurora, IL, and one production site located at San Vicente, Brazil. These products are primarily used in the production of feeds for livestock. DFP is manufactured at White Springs, FL. Our new-technology DFP plant at Aurora, which came on stream in 2003, is now demonstrating its design capacity. It allowed us to focus feed phosphate production at Aurora in 2005, eliminating the need to operate the White Springs DFP plant. PotashCorp has announced the construction of a new world-class DFP facility to be located at Aurora, NC. The strategic location of the facilities helps reduce distribution and warehousing costs and provides excellent service to our customers.

Transportation:
Domestic Shipments – All of the facilities can supply bulk customers by either rail or truck. In addition, finished products can be bagged to allow shipment of smaller quantities.

Export Shipments – Most of the overseas bulk shipments are made through the deep water port at Morehead City, NC.

Containers are also loaded at the Kinston, North Carolina facility for export shipments through either Wilmington, North Carolina, or Norfolk, Virginia ports.
