ADM has opened a new fertilizer terminal and blender in St. Paul to boost availability and access to quality crop nutrition products across the northern U.S. corn belt and western Canada. The new river terminal strengthens ADM's position of being a preferred and reliable supplier of fertilizer.
The new terminal has bulk storage capacity for a variety of macro and micronutrients than can be blended on site to meet unique crop nutrition needs of customers in the region. Its location, immediately south of the I-94 and Highway 52 intersection, provides easy on-and-off access to the interstate for truck traffic.
"The St. Paul facility is the newest leg of our strategy to be a world-class supplier of fertilizer," said Scott Nagel, president ADM-Benson Quinn. "It strengthens our global supply chain logistics infrastructure to help ensure we continue to reliably procure and deliver high-quality fertilizer. It is ADM's robust logistics network that enables us to rapidly respond to changing market conditions like what we have been experiencing over the last year."
The new facility is one of 28 river and interior fertilizer terminals across the U.S. and Canada operated by ADM. They supply dry and liquid fertilizer to retailers and farmers throughout North America.
ADM Fertilizer offers its customers the unique ability to price and procure fertilizer up to 12 months in advance so they can take advantage of market opportunities. The ADM Fertilizer team leverages its commodity trading expertise to provide customers market insights to help them make better buying decisions.
