About Yara
“50% of the world’s population can feed themselves thanks to mineral fertilisers.”
Yara leads the world when it comes to crop nutrition. With over 17,000 colleagues in 60 countries around the world, we develop innovative agricultural and environmental solutions for a nature-positive food future. Our planet is currently home to 8 billion people, and that number is expected to grow to almost 10 billion by 2050. That means we have to produce 50% more food, yet fulfil our promise to cut CO2 emissions by 60%. To meet these challenges, we’re improving our products and processes and making them more sustainable, we’re working on CO2 storage solutions, and we’re actively developing sustainable alternatives for our essential raw materials.
These developments are being put into practice in factories such as Yara Sluiskil, our largest production facility in the world. Since 1990, we’ve already cut our emissions by 65%. Our ambition: 85-90% reduction by 2030. To make it happen, we’re looking for a new generation of thinkers and doers.
