Genesis Fertilizers is proposing to build a state-of-the-art fertilizer manufacturing facility in Belle Plaine, Sask., strategically located near major services and transportation corridors. What sets this apart from other projects is that this facility’s goal is to become the world’s lowest carbon footprint nitrogen factory, with a majority ownership held by farmers.
“This project signifies that the fertilizer industry is transitioning to become both more independent and environmentally friendly,” says Genesis Fertilizers president and CEO Jason Mann. “We want to empower farmers to own control of their own input costs while supporting their sustainability goals, helping them grow low carbon grain.”
The vision of this complex is to provide a variety of economic, environmental and industry benefits not only to Western Canadian farmers, but to all Canadian farmers seeking stable and consistent supply and cost of high-quality fertilizers.“ Our primary goal is to build the most cost-efficient production and supply of nitrogen fertilizers to the farmers in Western Canada based on the most advanced technologies available, while considering the carbon impact,” said Mann.

This fertilizer manufacturing complex will be engineered with these latest and most innovative technologies. Genesis Fertilizers is committed to providing the plant’s ownership with the best energy efficient and economically sustainable facility in Canada for today’s and future farming generations.
Farmers who invest in the facility will own a majority stake that represents the nitrogen fertilizer they use on their farm and will be the primary financial beneficiaries of the plant. Farmer investors will have direct access to a consistent supply of high-quality urea fertilizer, meaning they’ll avoid the current market situation of high shipping costs, distribution delays and issues, and a variety of uncontrollable external factors. By having consistent access to a cost-effective supply of fertilizer, local farming operations will have control of a secure nitrogen supply chain and a potential strong return on their investment year after year.
An estimated 20% of Western Canadian farmer-owned acres have the unique opportunity to own part of a fertilizer production and distribution network. As an investor you’ll also have a direct stake in the performance of the production facility. Farmers invest based on their fertilizer requirements, securing their future supply and receive financial distributions based on plant profits, offsetting the cost of fertilizer. This ownership secures both future urea requirements and annual cash distributions from plant revenues.
