The article "Phosphorus' Future Insecurity, the Horror of Depletion, and Sustainability Measures" by D. T. Ilakwahhi, M. R. Vegi, and B. B. L. Srivastava discusses the critical role of phosphorus in crop production and the potential depletion of phosphate reserves. Phosphorus is essential for producing high-quality food crops, and its availability is limited due to the slow release of phosphates from insoluble sources in the soil. The study critiques the prediction that phosphate production will peak in 2033, arguing that it is based on insufficient and potentially unreliable data from sources like the United States Geological Survey (USGS). The authors propose that individual country-specific data on phosphate reserves and resource depletion should be explored to provide more accurate estimates. They also highlight the importance of considering sustainability measures such as efficient use, recovery, and recycling to extend the reserve life span and peak production. The review aims to offer new perspectives on peak production and reserve depletion, emphasizing the need for better understanding and management of phosphorus resources.The article "Phosphorus' Future Insecurity, the Horror of Depletion, and Sustainability Measures" by D.
