For the commercialization of our products, we have a wide Distribution Network in the different areas of the country. Accompanying the technical advisors of the agronomic stores, we promote the application of the Good Agricultural Practices, by means of the Four Requirements of the Responsible Management of Nutrients (4R), where the producer will be able to have the technical advice and the necessary services necessary for the care of soil health and the sustainable development of its production.
SUPPLIED MARKETS
Agricultural producers are the end users of our products. Territory managers and agronomic technicians distributed in the different areas allow us to be in permanent contact with them and to spread the responsible use of fertilizers throughout the country.
We understand that products must be applied with Best Management Practices taking into account the correct source to be used, the correct dosage, and the time and manner of application. Thus, we train the farmer in the optimization of fertilizer use practices, soil resource care and productive system sustainability.

OUR PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
With our work, we nurture the land so that it generates more and better food for Argentina and the world. By applying state of the art technology in every link of our chain, we produce and commercialize fertilizers that sustainably nourish the crops in our fields.
At Profertil, we produce and sell nutrients for the land. Our plant produces 1,320,000 tons of Urea and 790,000 tons of Ammonia per year. Other nutrients are also sold, and special blends are prepared so that the soil receives what it needs to optimize its yield in a sustainable way. We have different types of products, classified, according to their final destination, as follows:
AGRO DIVISION
• 14 products for the care and nutrition of crops and for the health care of our soils.
• Main recipients: Agricultural Producers, Tenant Producers and Contractors.
We offer high quality products and disseminate Best Management Practices (BMPs) for crop nutrition. Likewise, we train the technical advisors of our distribution network, so that they can transmit the appropriate agronomic knowledge to each environment, taking care of the soil and the sustainability of the productive systems in the different regions of the country. We understand the impact of the use of our products so each one of them has its respective Safety Data Sheet (SDS), with the identification of the main measures for its safe, efficient and responsible use, as well as components and other relevant information. The information contained in these sheets is based on existing documentation and studies, and in accordance with efficient and reliable industry practices.
GRI 102-2, 103-2, 103-3, 417-1
GRANULATED UREA
Main fertilizer used in agriculture. Allows the supply of nitrogen needed to increase crop productivity.
PROTERRA
Physical, solid and liquid mixtures that allow to provide, in an adequate balance, the necessary nutrients for each crop.
It comes in two variants: starter and grower, for the different stages of the crop.
PROTERRA S
Balanced physical mixture of phosphorus and sulfur, of gradual release. This allows the crop to have the necessary sulfur at the time it most needs it. With the application of a high dose of Proterra S in pre-sowing, the nutrition of the – crop and the whole sequence is achieved (for example: wheat and soybean), since these nutrients are not lost by washing and remain available for the plants.
ENETOTAL PLUS
Nitrogen fertilizer with the highest concentration of stabilized Nitrogen (N) on the market, formulated to ensure greater efficiency of N (EUN) to protect the environment, since, by reducing N loss by volatilization, one of the indirect emissions of nitrous oxide (one of the greenhouse gases) is avoided.
OTHER FERTILIZERS
Monoammonium Phosphate (MAP); Diammonium Phosphate (DAP), Triple Super Phosphate (SPT), Single Super Phosphate (SPS), Ammonium Sulfate (SA), Calcium Sulfate (SCa), Potassium and Magnesium Sulfate, Potassium Chloride (ClK), Boron (B), Zinc (Zn) and UAN and liquid mixtures with Ammonium Thiosulfate.
INDUSTRIAL DIVISION
• 2 chemical products.
• Main recipients: some industries as part of their production processes and the automotive industry.
AMMONIA
We generate Ammonia as part of the process of producing Granulated Urea, that is, as an intermediate product. It is used as a coolant for the baking industry, in the production of cosmetics and hair dyes, and in the manufacture of disinfectants and kitchen cleaners.
PROAIRE
Additive produced based on Urea, for diesel engines, aimed at reducing the emission of Greenhouse Gases (GHG). It is applied in a special tank of heavy vehicles, separated from the fuel. In addition, SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) technology, through a chemical reaction, allows the conversion of Nitrogen Oxide (NOx) into gases and substances that are harmless to the environment. This meets the requirements of the European Union’s Euro V standard, which regulates the permitted limits of GHG emissions. We supply the local market and export to neighboring countries.
SERVICES
Customized blends
We make physical mixtures on demand according to the needs of each client.
The correct mixing process must ensure the exact dosage of each component, to obtain an even particle size, avoiding the segregation of the different components and facilitating the application in the field.
Bulk dispatches
This is the prevailing trend in the fertilizer market due to its advantages:
• Greater agility in the dispatches
• Lower cost of fertilizer supply
• Lower operative cost
• Manual loading and unloading of the truck avoided
• The use of bags, their discarding and/or reuse is avoided.
Bagging
For customers who require it, we offer the possibility of delivering the products in 50 or 25 kg bags and 1-ton bags. We have a cargo batch allocation system that allows us to speed up dispatch operations, thus providing a fast, efficient service without long waits.
