There is a high demand and strong sales in the chemical and fertilizer market.  U.S. companies should explore this potentially lucrative opportunity.  Farmers have adopted the use of fertilizers in their farms both for cotton and food crops.  Since the volume of cotton production is increasing, there is a real market for fertilizers.  The three cotton companies (Sofitex, Faso Coton and Socoma) as well as the Union Nationale des Producteurs de Coton du Burkina (UNPCB) have recently expressed an interest in importing fertilizers from the United States.
