Agriculture
According to the most common law of agricultural science (Liebig’s law of the minimum), the amount of crops depends on the nutrient that is the scarcest in soil. The wide and diverse range of fertilizer products offered by the Grupa Azoty Group helps farmers meet the requirements following from this principle. Application of fertilizers manufactured by the Group affects the way plants use mineral resources and water, leading to improved environmental and economic efficiency of fertilisation.
