Critical Raw Materials

Urban Farm DB summary

This is the European Commission's official Critical Raw Materials (CRM) page. It confirms that both 'Phosphorus' and 'Phosphate Rock' appear as separate entries on the EU's 2023 fifth CRM list. The page illustrates supply-concentration risk with examples for other materials (China supplying 100% of heavy rare earth elements, Turkey 99% of boron, South Africa over 71% of platinum group metals), but does not itself state a specific EU import-dependency figure for phosphorus or phosphate rock.

Only numbers and their conditions are stored, as structured data — never the source's own sentences. Metric and condition names stay in English, as coded.
