  • Yara is delivering on its growth pipeline;

    multiple plant expansions and M&A coming on stream in 2018

    1) Adjusted to normalized / 2016 turnaround level (0.7mt finished fertilizer and 0.2mt NH3) and regularity level (0.7mt finished fertilizer and 0.4mt NH3)

    2) Salitre will reach 1.1 mill.tonnes in 2022

    3) Rio Grande expansion also adds 1 million tonnes NPK blends by 2020

    4) Including 100% ownership in Pilbara NH3 plant (not included in committed growth pipeline)

    5) TAN Pilbara started up in 2Q 2017, but has been down for technical reasons since 3Q 2017. Expected re-start 2Q 2018
