Analysis
Mauritania recorded 1.8 g/Int$ for nutrient nitrogen n (total) — use per value of agricultural production in 2024.
Compared with earlier readings it is down 0.6% on the previous year and down 32.6% over ten years.
Over the whole period, nutrient nitrogen n (total) — use per value of agricultural production in Mauritania peaked at 13.96 g/Int$ in 1992 and was at its lowest, 0 g/Int$, in 1961.
That places Mauritania 170th out of 193 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the bottom quarter.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

About this data
The Fertilizers by Nutrient dataset contains information on the totals in nutrients for Production, Trade and Agriculture Use of inorganic (chemical or mineral) fertilizers. The data are provided for the three primary plant nutrients: nitrogen (N), phosphorus (expressed as P2O5) and potassium (expressed as K2O). Both straight and compound fertilizers are included.
