Phosphate rock is found in deposits of sedimentary origin, laid down originally in beds on the ocean floor. The rock consists largely of the insoluble tricalcium phosphate, together with some other materials, including some fluorine. To be used as a fertilizer, phosphate must be converted to a form that is soluble in water, even if only slightly so.
Specifically, it is a history of the Florida phosphate industry. If the record of the Florida phosphate industry is any guide, then ecological disaster need not occur, but enlightened use of phosphorus and all other natural resources would seem to be imperative.

High Adoption in Food Industry to Boost Market Growth. Over the past couple of decades, the demand for phosphates, particularly to develop phosphate additives has witnessed consistent growth. Phosphate additives are used in several food products, especially processed food items.
Phosphates are inorganic minerals mined from the deposits of clay. Phosphates are generally used as compounds of phosphate ions combined with elements such as potassium, ammonium, calcium, sodium, rubidium, and others. The ammonium phosphate segment accounted for the majority share of the global phosphates market in 2017 due to its increasing use in manufacturing
