Segment Reporting [Abstract] |
BUSINESS SEGMENTS | BUSINESS SEGMENTS Our operations are organized into three segments: potash, Trio® and oilfield solutions. The reportable segments are determined by management based on several factors including the types of products and services sold, production processes, markets served and the financial information available for our chief operating decision maker. We evaluate performance based on the gross margins of the respective business segments and do not allocate corporate selling and administrative expenses, among others, to the respective segments. Information for each segment is provided in the tables that follow (in thousands).

1 Segment sales include the sales of byproducts generated during the production of potash and Trio®. Prior to the adoption of ASC 606, sales of byproducts were accounted for as a credit to cost of goods sold for potash and Trio®. 2 Depreciation and depletion incurred for potash and Trio® excludes depreciation and depletion absorbed in or (relieved from) inventory. Total assets are not presented for each reportable segment as they are not reviewed by, nor otherwise regularly provided to, the chief operating decision maker. All segment sales are to external customers. During the year ended December 31, 2016, we recorded restructuring charges of $2.7 million, of which $2.1 million was attributable to the potash segment, $0.4 million was attributable to the Trio® segment, and $0.2 million was attributable to other.
