Yara and Fassagro negotiate rights to NPK fertilizers

Fassagro is in the process of purchasing rights relating to certain assets related to the production and commercialization of final NPK fertilizers distributed in liquid form from Yara Brasil. When questioned, the companies have not yet specified which products are involved in the business or the value of the operation. 

Fassagro, officially Fass Indústria e Comércio de Produtos Agropecuários Ltda., headquartered in Sertãozinho (SP), is a company that stands out in the development and production of liquid fertilizers, including final NPK and foliar fertilizers. The company is part of the ENG Group, which offers solutions for industrial processes in the sugar-energy sector. This group also develops products for the production of sugar and ethanol, fertilizer for crops and equipment for water treatment in plants.

In turn, Yara Brasil Fertilizandos SA, headquartered in Porto Alegre (RS), is a subsidiary of the international group Yara International ASA. Founded in Norway in 1905, Yara is globally recognized for its sustainable solutions for agriculture and industry, integrating technological development and productivity with environmental conservation. In Brazil, Yara Group companies operate on several fronts, including the commercialization of industrial chemical products, raw materials for fertilizers and the production of basic nitrogen and phosphate fertilizers.

The acquisition operation, currently under analysis by the Administrative Council for Economic Defense (Cade), involves specific Yara assets and rights related to the production of NPK final fertilizers in liquid format. If approved, this transaction will allow Fassagro to expand its production capacity and supply of liquid fertilizers in the Brazilian market.
