Sustainable Global Food Supply
An all natural nutrient necessary for all living things
Potash, a fertilizer with no substitute, is designated as one of only 35 “strategic & critical” minerals by the US Government (2018) and the only food-related mineral to receive the designation.
Located in rural Michigan and lead by a team with decades of upstream energy and potash experience, MPSC is on the verge of extracting two critical elements to food security – potash and salt – for 150+ years.
Michigan Potash holds the only established and sustainable Potash reserve in the US.
Without water, there is no farm. Nobody cares about water more than the people growing our food.

Environmental Stewardship
Helping Michigan farmers steward water use, while being water recycle efficient
- Supports dryland farming
Potash helps dryland farming; when irrigation would otherwise be considered necessary. - Helps farmers adapt to climate change
Helping farmers adapt to climate change with higher yields during the dry season. - Reducing the need for irrigation and protecting our water
This project will help reduce irrigation, improve dryland farming, and improve water use efficiency in all crops. - Reduce, recycle, replenish
Project utilizes a closed loop water recycling process via geothermal wellbores to produce low-carbon potash and salt, significantly more environmentally friendly and with a reduced carbon footprint vs. current sources.

A Valuable Resource for Plant Health
“The Positive effect of potassium on the whole plant development results in better water economy of plants.”
Dr. R. Miles, University of Missouri
“Potassium levels are a critical component to water management, allowing growers to get the most efficient use of what water they have available for a specific crop.”

feeding a growing population
Reduces Deforestation
Proper potash application results in more food on less land (higher yields), which reduces deforestation practices spurned by the need for more arable land to feed a growing population. Deforestation is responsible for CO2 emissions through clearing and burning, and less CO2 withdrawal from the earths atmosphere.
