The International Fertilizer Development Center (IFDC) shall convene an
international meeting on the Direct Application of Phosphate Rock and
Related Technology in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, during July 16-20, 2001. The
meeting is cosponsored by the Malaysian Society of Soil Science (MSSS) and
the East and Southeast Asia Program (ESEAP) of the Potash and Phosphate
Institute (PPI) and the Potash and Phosphate Institute of Canada (PPIC).
Details of the meeting agenda are shown in the enclosed brochure. We
encourage the enrollment of persons from your organization and the sharing
of brochure information with colleagues and others who may have an interest
in the topic. Research scientists, extension officers, ministries of
agriculture, representatives of countries with phosphate rock deposits,
fertilizer producers, dealers, and users would benefit from attending and
participating in the meeting.
A detailed agenda and other information shall be sent to those who enroll in
the program. Please note that early enrollment and payment of the program
fee results in savings if paid prior to June 16, 2001.
A visa may be required to enter Malaysia, and it is important to begin the
process of visa application at an early date, i.e., about 3 months before
the commencement of the meeting.
If you have any questions about the program please feel free to contact me.

One alternative solution to the use of expensive water-soluble phosp

that effective use of phosphate rock for direct application requires a =
