. Cranberries; : the national cranberry magazine. Cranberries. Between now and 1980/81, the developing countries are expected to increase their share of world fertilizer consumption and produc- tion steadily, while the production- consumption shares of the devel- oped countries probably will decline. Growth rates for fertilizer pro- duction are projected to exceed those for consumption, particularly in the developing countries. Some developing countries will approach and may achieve self-sufficiency in nitrogen and phosphate-especially the three largest fertilizer importing countries of China, India, and Brazil. During the next four years, Indonesia, Mexico, Venezuela, and the Mideast countries are expected to become significant exporters. Current projections indicate that by 1980/81 the developing coun- tries as a group will greatly reduce their import dependence on nitro- gen and eliminate it for phosphate, although their imports of potash will roughly double. The world's future potash situa- tion is unclear, primarily because of the Saskatchewan Government's de- cision to nationalize Canada's potash industry, which dominates world potash trade. The outcome of this step is vitally important to the United States, which in 1973/74 imported nearly three quarters of its potash from Canada. Because of large inventories, supplies this year should be ade- quate, but future renovation and expansion of Canadian potash capa- city will depend directly on Gov- emment decisions. Potash prices have remained relatively stable during the past few years, compared with prices of other types of fertilizer. However, recent statements by Saskatchewan officials indicate higher returns on the Province's potash exports are expected. Foreign Agriculture 12 Trapping Pollen from Honey Bee Colonies. Traps for removing pollen pellets from legs of honey bees are des- cribed in a new publication from the USDA's Agricultural Research Service. All traps must have two basic elements: a grid throug
