DIRECTIONS
CF Industries, Inc., a subsidiary of CF Industries Holdings, Inc., is one of North America’s largest manufacturers and distributors of nitrogen and phosphate fertilizer products for agricultural and other uses.
Founded in 1946 as a fertilizer brokerage operation by a group of regional agricultural cooperatives, CF Industries grew by expanding its distribution capabilities and diversifying into fertilizer manufacturing. The company is an interregional agricultural firm that manufactures and markets nitrogenous and phosphatic fertilizers (including diammonium phosphate, or DAP). It operates a network of manufacturing and distribution facilities, primarily in the Midwest, through which it offers products worldwide. CF offered to buy fertilizer producer Terra Industries for $2.1 billion in 2009 but was rebuffed by Terra's Board. Soon after that offer, Canadian fertilizers firm Agrium offered to buy CF Industries for $4.1 billion, but CF, still committed to buying Terra Industries, professed no interest in the deal.
