    We need to change our mentality and business plans from simply selling

    tons of fertilizer to supplying crop nutrient solutions that deliver value to

    farmers and the environment.

    That may well mean moving fewer tons but selling more services to our

    dealer and farmer customers.

    Strive!

    We shall never achieve harmony with the land, any more than we shall

    achieve absolute justice or liberty for people. In these higher aspirations, the

    most important thing is not to achieve, but to strive.

    Aldo Leopold
