The document does not describe Yara or its strategies to a great extent.

All are available on URL Fertilizers are essential plant nutrients that are applied to a crop to achieve optimal yield and quality. The following slides describe the value and characteristics of fertilizers in modern food production. Cutoff for data points in this presentation is December 2021 for annual data, and October 2022 for monthly data. Fertilizers are plant nutrients, required for crops to grow Crops need energy (light), CO2, water and minerals to grow The carbon in crops originates from CO2 absorbed through the leaves Crops absorb water and plant nutrients from the soil Plant nutrients are building blocks of crop material. Without nutrients, the crops can not grow Mineral fertilizers provide plant nutrients for crops Three main nutrients: Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potassium are primary nutrients Three main nutrients: Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potassium Nitrogen (N), the main constituent of proteins, is essential for growth and development in plants. Supply of nitrogen determines a plant's growth, vigour, colour and yield. Phosphorus (P) is vital for adequate root development and helps the plant resist drought. Phosphorus is also important for plant growth and development, such as the ripening of seed and fruit. Potassium (K) is central to the photosynthesis of crops. Potassium helps improve crop quality and crop resistance to lodging, disease and drought. In addition, the secondary nutrients sulphur, magnesium and calcium are required for optimum crop growth. Sulphur is especially important in the initial growth stages, to produce essential amino acids, proteins, and oils. Magnesium is needed for photosynthesis, converting light into chemical energy for nutritional purposes. Calcium is particularly important for the yield, quality and shelf life of fruit and vegetables. Each plant nutrient has unique physiological functions which cannot be replaced by any other nutrient.
