The current situation on the fertilizer market was among the topics discussed by representatives of Grupa Azoty with Marian Sikora, President of the Federation of Agricultural Producer Associations, and Stanisław Kacperczyk, President of the Polish Association of Grain Producers. At the meeting, Zbigniew Paprocki, Member of the Management Board and CEO of Grupa Azoty S.A., said that the adverse conditions prevailing on the fertilizer market stem from the gas crisis in Europe, that is record-high gas costs, which have risen by several hundred per cent year on year and directly translate into the current fertilizer production cost levels.

Another edition of Grupa Azoty’s customer lottery, in which the grand prize is a John Deere 5075E tractor, has just been launched. The aim is, among other things, to give farmers an opportunity to win one of the over three hundred prizes as a token of appreciation for choosing Grupa Azoty fertilizer products.
