    What? No they don’t. My cousin runs a fertalizer mining operation down south (like, massive massive shit, not a small operation). Phosphorus, nitrogen, potassium, etc. are mined from ore.

    I can’t say that nobody minds areas that would be rich in bat guano, but the vast majority of industrial mining operations for fertilizers as far as I’m aware come from mineral sources.
