Nutrien Releases 2023 Global Sustainability Report

By: via Business Wire

Nutrien Ltd. (TSX and NYSE: NTR) released its Global Sustainability Report today, detailing Nutrien’s performance and progress on its sustainability initiatives for the year ending 2023.

“Nutrien has a critical role to play in helping provide the food, fuel and fiber the world needs. In 2023, we continued to build strategic partnerships to help amplify our impact while refining our sustainability strategy to align with core business objectives that support both the environment and our people, customers, supply chain partners, communities and shareholders,” said Tim Faveri, Vice President, Sustainability and Stakeholder Relations.

Key highlights from the Global Sustainability Report include:

  • Measured, documented and calculated sustainable outcomes on approximately two million sustainably engaged acres in North America, South America and Australia.
  • Completed our GHG Phase I abatement program which included a number of N2O abatement projects, energy and emission efficiency upgrades, and tied in our second ammonia plant at our Redwater site to the Alberta Carbon Trunk Line to allow additional CO2 to be permanently sequestered.
  • Developed our first validated pathway and verified GHG outcomes for grain crops in Canada, and verified GHG offsets and insets in the US, based on grower data.
  • Co-launched with Canadian business leaders the Canadian Alliance for Net Zero Agrifood (CANZA) with industry-leading peers, which aims to foster collaboration and innovation to reduce emissions in the agri-food value chain.
  • Achieved 32 percent spend with local direct Indigenous economic impact in Nutrien’s Potash operating segment, reflecting over $300 million of contract opportunities that support direct positive impact with Indigenous communities and Peoples.
  • Achieved our best record for Total Recordable Injury Frequency (“TRIF”) and maintained our best record for Lost Time Injury Frequency (“LTIF”) since Nutrien formed in 2018.

As the world’s largest provider of crop inputs and services, Nutrien is positioned to drive long-term value creation through the integration of sustainability initiatives, from fertilizer production to grower practices in the field. Through innovation and collaboration, we strive to improve our sustainability performance within our operations and provide sustainable agricultural solutions to support growers who are feeding a growing population.
