Environment, Social and Governance Framework (ESG)
- Fertoz is committed to providing full transparency of our mining, processing and marketing of our rock phosphate products and has developed policies that respect the ESG framework.
- Rock phosphate ore shallow surface mining is unobtrusive, minimally disturbs the environment, preserves wildlife and vegetation, respects nearby communities, and involves reclamation and topsoil replacement.
- Crushing, screening, granulation and pelletization of rock phosphate does not include chemical extraction, all active ingredients are OMRI approved from reliable sources, ensures minimal fossil fuel combustion and CO2 release (insignificant carbon footprint), waste and gypsum stacks are not generated and the environment benefits.
- Processing of alfalfa green nitrogen to produce an all in one organic fertilizer N-P-K-S is carbon negative compared to urea production.
- We minimize transportation through direct sales to growers and by strategically locating retailers.
- To mitigate the greenhouse effect, use of rock phosphate (the lowest footprint carbon source) alone or in blends to boost crop yields improves carbon sequestration for organic and conventional farmers.
- Fertoz products are fully traceable, our team is accountable and reliable, we focus on human health and environmental sustainability, and employ safe work practices.
- Our ESG practices are regularly reviewed and audited as Fertoz continues to oversee current global issues and areas of focus.
- We develop and maintain good relationships with stakeholders, growers, dealers and business partners.
