About Brazil
Potash
Brazil Potash (NYSE-American: GRO)
(www.brazilpotash.com) is developing Brazil’s largest potash
project that will supply sustainable fertilizers to one of the
world’s largest agricultural exporters. Brazil is critical for
global food security as the country has amongst the highest amounts
of fresh water, arable land, and an ideal climate for year-round
crop growth but is vulnerable as it imports over 95% of its potash
fertilizer despite having what is anticipated to be one of the
world’s largest undeveloped potash basins in its own backyard. The
potash produced will be transported primarily using low-cost river
barges on an inland river system in partnership with Amaggi
(www.amaggi.com.br), one of the largest farmers and logistical
operators of agricultural products in Brazil. With initial planned
annual potash production of 2.4 million tons per year, Brazil
Potash’s management believes it could potentially supply
approximately 17% of the growing potash demand in Brazil with
future plans to double output. Management anticipates 100% of
Brazil Potash’s production will be sold domestically to reduce
Brazil’s reliance on potash imports while concurrently mitigating
approximately 1.4 million tons per year of GHG emissions.
