An acre with one foot of soil holds about 70,000 pounds of potash, enough to sustain crops for roughly 1,400 years at a 50-pound annual removal. The Strassfurt beds in Germany, 50 to 130 feet deep, have been mined commercially since 1841 by Kali syndicate, now a $200 million company employing 28,000 miners and selling $25 million of product yearly. Geologic history ties the deposit to an ancient inland sea followed by volcanic uplift and gradual burial under vegetation and soil.
