Canadian Farmers Investing in the Future of Canadian Produced Fertilizer
Genesis Fertilizers is proposing to finance, design and construct a new, highly efficient urea production and distribution system that serves today’s modern farmer. One central production facility constructed near low cost raw materials serving a Western Canadian network of strategically located farmer centric SuperCenters.
OWNED BY FARMERS FOR FARMERS.
THE OPPORTUNITY
Western Canadian farmers used approximately 2,800,000 MT of nitrogen in 2020 and use is expected to continue to grow at an average of 4% year over year.1
Granular Urea Fertilizer
Fertilizer is a major input cost for farmers in Canada
Production Facility
State of the Art, 700,000 MTPA Production Facility
Distribution Centers
Seven strategically placed SuperCenters across the Prairies
Financial Stakeholders
Seeking support from Canada’s leading financial institutions
Public Stakeholders
Seeking support from governments at various levels
Strategic Investors
Seeking support from organizations with specific interest in the industry and the project
Canadian Farm Investors
Western Canadian farmers represent a significant customer base and are the backbone to Canadian food production
Leading Exporter to USA
The United States is a net importer of nitrogen fertilizers and the world’s largest importer of crop nutrients.
THE PROBLEM
Despite the fact that urea is being produced in North America and Western Canada specifically, farmers on the Canadian Prairies are facing some of the highest fertilizer prices globally2 as prices are determined by the NOLA import price plus shipping costs between the Gulf of Mexico and Western Canada.
LAND LOCKED LOCATION
Western Canada is removed from key supply routes
Over CDN$150/MT
Freight cost to bring urea from NOLA to Western Canada3
Farmers in Western Canada have for years paid some of the highest prices for urea fertilizer globally.
IT’S TIME TO MAKE A CHANGE!
THE SOLUTION
Our financing, design and construction of a new, highly efficient urea production and distribution system that serves today’s modern farmer given their capacity for transportation and storage. One central production facility constructed near low cost inputs serving a Western Canadian network of seven strategically located SuperCenters to service farmers.
FERTILIZER PRODUCTION
-
Genesis Fertilizers urea plant has planned production of 700,000 MT per annum with 75% or 525,000 MT for sale as farmer offtake investment when complete
-
Production for sale is an estimated 20% of annual Western Canada urea usage
Genesis estimates 20% of Western Canadian farmer owned acres have the opportunity to take control of their future fertilizer expenditures.
