The Potash Corporation of Saskatchewan mines in Lanigan and Allan will see four week curtailments in March.

The potash producer says they will have cutbacks beginning March 20th.

On the company's website they say they are opting to achieve these curtailments through the use of maintenance shutdowns, which do not require temporary workforce layoffs.

They estimate the reductions will reduce their 2016 production by approximately 400,000 tonnes.
