Yara International tries to make the world green -- and, in the process, make a little green of its own. The manufacturer of fertilizers and industrial gases is among the world's largest makers of plant nutrients and ammonia, selling about 20 million metric tons of fertilizer per year. It is also a top supplier of CO2 and nitrogen chemicals to industrial markets and of nitrates to the explosives industry. Yara has a quarter stake in Chilean fertilizers maker SQM, as does Canadian fertilizers maker PotashCorp. The company was spun off in 2004 by Norwegian aluminum giant Norsk Hydro. Yara markets its products worldwide.
