In production, up to 70 per cent of the salt extracted is dumped on heaps as waste, which places a heavy burden on the environment. Yet without the fertiliser produced by potash mining, modern agriculture as we know it would no longer be possible, and feeding the world\u2019s population could not be guaranteed.<br><br>With eight former mines, the Hannover region was one of the world\u2019s most important mining areas until a few years ago, and potash mining is still deeply rooted in the region today. Germany\u2019s currently extractable potash deposits will last fifty years at most. The prosperous potash regions must therefore develop new industries while learning to deal with the residues and consequences of mining in the long term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \n\n    <div id=\"accordion-block_972d243dd7dfa0191f0eceec841aea95\" class=\"accordion has-spacing--m\">\n        <div class=\"accordion__title\">\n            <h5>Jasper Hill<\/h5>\n            <span><\/span>\n        <\/div>\n\n        <div class=\"accordion__text\">\n         <p><strong>Jasper Hill (born 2003)<\/strong> works as a photographer in southern Germany and Hannover.
