Agriculture

Today’s agriculture needs modern crop protection products and fertilizers. Brenntag supplies commodities, specialties, and its own manufactured Agrofeed fertilizers to the Latin American market. “Since the early nineties, the Agro Unit has been helping to promote the safe and effective use of more than 30 fertilizers and other agriculture-related products. "We run our own Agrofeed manufacturing bases in Colombia, Central America, the Dominican Republic and Chile", says Peter Staartjes, Group President of Brenntag Latin America.

Brenntag offers commodities such as urea, potassium chloride-sulfate and nitrate, phosphates, calcium and magnesium salts for the efficient cultivation of bananas, rice, potatoes, cotton, flowers and sugar cane.

 

Current agriculture requires modern farming and fertilizing protection products. Brenntag supplies the Latin American market with industrial chemicals, chemical specialties, and with the self-produced Agrofeed fertilizers. “Since the beginning of the 90’s, the Agro Unit has been cooperating with the promotion of the safe and effective use of more than 30 fertilizers and other related agricultural products.  We have our own Agrofeed manufacturing facilities in Colombia, Central America, Dominican Republic and Chile. In Ecuador, we sell fertilizers and physical blends or—as they are known—granular solids" says Peter Staartjes, President of the Latin American Brenntag Group.

 

Brenntag, having been present in all Latin American countries for more than 38 years, has become a leader in the distribution of chemical products.

 

Current agriculture demands modern protection products for cultivations and vegetal nutrition.

 

Brenntag supplies the Latin America market with industrial chemicals, agricultural chemical specialties, and its own-produced Agrofeed fertilizers.

 

Brenntag offers some industrial chemicals such as urea, sulphate, nitrate, and potassium chloride, phosphates, calcium salt and magnesium which are used for the efficient cultivation of bananas, rice, potatos, cotton, flowers, and sugar cane.  Multinational companies, such as Dole and Chiquita, apply these high quality fertilizers.  A 25 people team—which also includes a team of about 20 agricultural engineers—offers the liquid fertilizer already licensed by Agrofeed which is applied through sophisticated dosing systems in accordance to nutritional requisites and the development stages of each cultivation.

 

The Agricultural Division has been in the market for 15 years, developing tailored liquid fertilizing formulas which are balanced under quality and efficiency criteria to supply our customer requisites for the production of flowers, cane, bananas, and citrics, among others, and under our licensed AGROFEED’s trademark. As to flowers, we count on a complete post-harvest line, FLORISSIMA.  Thus, we complete our portfolio with a large variety of single or traditional fertilizers.

agrofeedrea1l

 

It is a group of concentrated balanced liquid fertilizers used for irrigation systems (ferti-irrigation), which provides the cultivation with major (N, P, K, Ca, Mg, S) and minor (Mn, Zn, Cu, Fe, B, Mo) nutrients that are necessary for the optimum development and production of Flowers, Sugar Cane, Bananas, Citrics, and others.

 

Agrofeed development is founded on the tailored technical support provided to customers by an excellent human and professional group.

 

In both Colombia and Central America, Agrofeed has been characterized for creating a group of concentrated liquid fertilizers used in irrigation systems (ferti-irrigation), which--in a balanced way--provides cultivations with major (N, P, K, Ca, Mg, S) and minor (Mn, Zn, Cu, Fe, B, Mo) nutrients that are necessary for the optimum development and production of flowers, sugar cane, bananas, citric and others.

  

labo

 

As to Ecuador, this characterization is referred to the sale of fertilizers as granular solids or hydro soluble dusts. Our products are sold under a single or blended format. Whenever possible, all blends are tailored to the customer’s needs. It mainly depends upon the amount of kilograms needed by the cultivation.  In cases of small amounts, the blend is tailored to one of the standard available formulas in the company.
