Canadian Farmers Are

Building a state-of-the-art fertilizer complex in Southern Saskatchewan

Genesis Fertilizer Production Complex: Sustainable Urea for Western Canada

The Project

The Genesis Fertilizers Belle Plaine Project is a proposed farmer-owned manufacturing facility in Saskatchewan. Its core purpose is to provide Western Canadian farmers with a guaranteed supply of urea fertilizer at fair costs.

Farmers participate based on their needs, and profits from the Genesis Fertilizer Plant are distributed to them, directly offsetting the cost of fertilizer. This model secures supply and aims to improve farmer profitability in agriculture farming.

Farmer-Owned Power: The Future of Urea Fertilizer

The Benefits

What Are the Benefits of a Localized Production Facility?
Location

Strategically located to maximize local distribution

Genesis Fertilizers strategically chose its facility location to establish an efficient network of regional SuperCenters around the main complex. This setup allows for the shipment of fertilizer to distribution centres across Saskatchewan, Alberta, and Manitoba, ensuring an efficient distribution network that benefits Western Canadian farmers.

Future-proofing your farm with a flexible & sustainable plant configuration using local natural resources

How Does the Facility Work?

Local Fertilizer Production
Owned by Farmers

Genesis Fertilizers is creating a farmer-owned urea production and distribution network through the Belle Plaine fertilizer project, giving Western Canadian farmers reliable access to locally made nitrogen fertilizer. Through the Genesis Fertilizers Limited Partnership, farmers invest based on their fertilizer needs, secure future supply, and share in plant profits—bringing more control, stability, and value to the fertilizer market in Western Canada.

  • Ensure your farm meets Canadian and international environmental standards.

  • Partner with Genesis Fertilizers Limited Partnership for reliable access to top-quality nitrogen fertilizers and trusted fertilizer suppliers in Canada.

7 Massive Reasons Why Our Fertilizer Production Complex is a Game-Changer

1. Advanced Fertilizer Production Complex Technology

Our facility utilizes state-of-the-art engineering to ensure high-efficiency urea manufacturing.

2. Local Economic Impact of the Complex

This project will create over 180 permanent, high-value jobs, supporting the regional economy in Saskatchewan.

3. Sustainable Urea for Western Canada

We are reducing the carbon footprint of agriculture by integrating carbon capture directly into the production process.

4. Strategic Farmer-Owned Ownership Model

Genesis Fertilizers puts the profits and the supply back into the hands of the producers.

5. Reduced Logistics and Transport Costs

By producing locally in Belle Plaine, we eliminate the need for expensive overseas shipping.

6. Long-Term Price Stability for Farmers

Owning the production complex protects shareholders from global fertilizer market volatility.

7. Future-Proof Agricultural Infrastructure

Our flexible plant configuration is designed to adapt to evolving environmental standards.

Building the Future in Our Own Backyard

“ The Government of Saskatchewan has made it a priority to create a competitive business environment that supports major projects such as the Genesis Fertilizers urea facility. This new facility near Belle Plaine will undoubtedly benefit the people of Saskatchewan, creating more than 100 jobs and support farmers, producers, and related business owners. We look forward to continuing to work with Genesis towards completion of this project.”

– Trade and Export Development Minister, Jeremy Harrison – Government of Saskatchewan
