It's no bull that Agrium is a top producer and marketer of fertilizers in the Americas. A leader in the production of nitrogen, the company operates about 15 plants in North America and Argentina that produce about 10 million tons of nitrogen, potash, and phosphate products per year. In addition to supplying wholesalers, Agrium operates more than 800 fertilizer retail outlets in the US and South America. The company also owns 50% of Profertil, a joint venture with Spain's Repsol YPF that runs Argentina's largest nitrogen plant, and 25% of a nitrogen fertilizers plant in Egypt. In 2008 it bought agricultural products retailer UAP for $2.5 billion, including assumed debt.
