| #3 Transporting fertilizer to a fertilizer company? Weird... Ummm no, You see the ammonium nitrate is only a small percent of the commercial fertilizer sold, (Less than 10% normaly) to get it relatively pure you'd either have to get it before it goes to the plant and is diluted by mixing, or do a hell of a lot of seperating to get the stuff out of the 90% junk that you don't want. Localy after 9-11 the law was looking for ways to secure the commercial farmers supplies, around here it's stored in bulk liquid in unguarded thousand gallon (Or so ) Tanks to be mixed, diluted and sprayed on the fields. Can't use it straight, it'll burn the crops like weed killer. |

| #2 Article: Ammonium nitrate is a common fertilizer, but when mixed with diesel or kerosene can be used as a powerful explosive. Such a mixture was used in the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing in the United States that killed 168 people. Xinche villager Li Hongwen was known to be transporting 18 tons of the chemical to a local fertilizer company, the paper said. It gave no other details. Transporting fertilizer to a fertilizer company? Weird... |
