Mosaic Plant City Plant, Florida

Mosaic’s Plant City Plant is a bit of an outlier, located by itself north of the rest of the Bone Valley phosphate mines and plants. Since 1965 it has been operated by CF Industries, until it was purchased by Mosaic in 2014. At the end of 2017, after it had produced more than a million tons of processed phosphates and more than half a million tons of phosphoric acid that year, Mosaic announced it was idling the plant for at least a year. It is one of around a dozen major operating and closed phosphate mines and plants in the region, now all owned by Mosaic.
