ABOUT IFA

Representing the global fertilizer industry. Serving farmers by providing the nutrients needed by soils and crops.

     

IFA has some 540 members in about 85 countries. About half of the membership is based in developing countries. IFA member companies represent all activities related to the production, trade, transport and distribution of every type of fertilizer, their raw materials and intermediates.

IFA's membership also includes organizations involved in construction, engineering, consulting, agronomic research and training.

The global fertilizer industry produces some 170 million tonnes of fertilizer nutrients annually. These are used in every corner of the globe to support agricultural production. There is no substitute for the nutrients absorbed by crops. As a major source of these, fertilizers therefore represent an essential ingredient in the drive towards world food security.
