Nitrate shipments reach Wilmington easing Carolina farmers
Chilean nitrate cargoes scheduled for Wilmington port this week ease shortages for North Carolina farmers. Two boatloads totaling about 11 200 tons are due, with a second vessel of similar capacity planned later in June. Delays stemmed from Chilean and U S dock strikes, while domestic synthetic nitrate supply remains unable to fill gaps. Congressman Kerr pledges continued oversight and aid. Local notices follow about an administrator’s estate in Halifax County and claims deadline.
