OCP Nutricrops’ Commitment to Sustainable, Regulated, and Safe Plant Nutrition
- OCP Nutricrops strictly adheres to the regulations of the markets where it operates. We support a science-based approach towards regulation which balances the sustainability and safety of plant nutrition products alongside regional and global food security pressures, economic competitiveness, and farmer livelihoods.
- We have developed the technology that enables us to reduce our cadmium levels to far below the regulatory thresholds of the markets we sell to.
- This advancement is the result of a multi-year R&D program, mobilizing a total investment of €60 million/$ to develop and deploy a large-scale industrial decadmium process.
- We will continue to evolve and refine our products to ensure we are competitive and we can best achieve our goal of strengthening food security and promoting sustainable agricultural practices.
OCP Nutricrops' Science-Based Approach to Regulating Sustainable Plant Nutrition
OCP Nutricrops strictly adheres to the regulations of all markets where we operate, including with respect to trace elements such as cadmium.
As one of the world’s leading suppliers of phosphate fertilizer, we have developed technology to safely reduce the naturally occurring cadmium contained in our products.
All our phosphate fertiliser products contain less than 20mg/kg P₂O₅ of cadmium, far below the cadmium content threshold regulations in major agricultural markets.
OCP Nutricrops supports a science-based approach towards fertilizer regulation that also balances the sustainability of fertilising products alongside regional and global food security pressures, economic competitiveness, and farmer livelihoods.
