PROFILE |
 |
It's no bull that Agrium is a top producer and marketer of fertilizers in North America. A leader in the production of nitrogen (3% of the world market), the company has 15 plants in North America and Argentina that produce mostly nitrogen products, but also phosphate, potash, sulfate, and micronutrients used primarily in fertilizers. In addition to wholesale sales (slightly more than half of its total sales), Agrium operates about 225 fertilizer retail outlets in the US and about 20 in Argentina. The company also has a 50%-owned joint venture with Spain's Repsol-YPF that runs Argentina's largest nitrogen plant and has increased its nitrogen capacity by acquiring Unocal's agricultural products division.
