The value flow of China's phosphorous fertilizer industry was analyzed by value flow analysis (VFA). The results showed that the links of fertilizer manufacturing process contributed 57% to the total value addition of China's phosphorous fertilizer industry. The variations of gross profit in the three processes were like this: manufacturing process > fertilizer wholesale process > retailing process. But output value per person and profit per person were all lower in enterprises than that in wholesaling sector. The sectors of resource exploitation and retailing were the smallest in margin of value-addition. The order of value-addition magnitude of every products was: Nitric Phosphates (NP) > Compound Fertilizer (NPK) > Di-Ammonium Phosphate (DAP) > Monoammonium Phosphate (MAP) > Triple Superphosphate (TSP) > Single Superphosphate (SSP). Highly concentrated NP was driven to develop by a wider maket space and higher margin of value and profits. But BPK was driven by the market demand, while the other 4 were forced by the interest of producers. But the development of low concentrated NP should be given national support owing to low value and a small market share.
