    Plants need nutrients to grow

    Nutrient behavior

    Nutrients have specific

    and essential functions in plant

    metabolisms

    They cannot replace eachother, and lack of any one

    nutrient limits crop growth

    What is fertilizer?

    Nitrogen is the main driver of yield

    Why mineral fertilizer ?

    Mineral fertilizers are necessary to replace those nutrients that have been removed from the field

    NOrganic

    substance,humus

    Crop residues are decomposed to minerals

    Mineralisation

    • Export of nutrientswith the harvest

    • Growing demandfor food & feed

    Profitability of investment in mineral fertilizers 

    The investment in nitrogen fertilizer

    is highly profitable for growers

    Fertilizer investment: 248 USD/ha

    Net return: 1,711 USD/ha

    Net return > 7 x investment

    Nitrate is the most important fertilizer in Europe

    Nitrate (NO3-)Ammonium (NH4

    +)

    Ammonium-N is fixed onto

    clay minerals in the soil and

    therefore immobile. The plant

    roots have to grow actively

    towards the nutrient.

    Nitrate-N is always dissolved

    in the soil water and is

    transported passively together

    with the water into the plant

    root. Thus, nitrate is rapidly

    effective.

    Urea (CON2H4)

    Urea-N needs to be

    converted into ammonium-

    N before it is plant

    available.

    Nitrates vs. urea

    Yara’s operating cash costs are mainly variable 

    Temporary plant closures can be

    made speedy and with limited

    stop/start costs

    Example for ammonia/urea plants:

     – Takes half a week to stop and aweek to start

     – Cost of stopping is 2 days energy

    consumption

     – Cost of starting is 3 days energy

    consumption

    Nitrogen oxides emissions lead to groundozone layer and acid rain

    Urea or ammonia combined with an SCRcatalyst, eliminates up to 90% NOx emissions

    Legislation requires emission limits frommobile sources (transport fleets on land and

    at sea) and from industrial sources (powerplants, cement factories, waste incinerators,refineries…)

    to improve air quality

    Calcium nitrate for H2S abatment 

    • Hydrogen Sulphide (H2S) is a

    highly toxic, odorous, andcorrosive gas formed in

    wastewater systems. It

    represents a significant health

    risk potentially causing loss of

    smell, eye irritation, rhinitis and

    respiratory difficulties amongst

    other symptoms

    • Yara’s calcium nitrate application

    is a natural biological system that

    removes and prevents the

    formation of H2S in sewage

    systems and waste water
