First US phosphate fertiliser plant since 1984: Moroccos OCP and CHS plan $450 million, 1-million-tonne Louisiana factory with nearly 1,000 jobs

Moroccos OCP and US farmer-owned cooperative CHS plan a $450 million Louisiana phosphate fertiliser plant, the first of its kind in America since 1984. The facility could produce more than 1 million tonnes annually, reduce phosphate import dependence and support nearly 1,000 jobs. The proposed factory would be located at the Cornerstone Energy Park in Waggaman, Louisiana, near the Mississippi River.
