They say you reap what you sow, and that's just fine with fertilizer company Hanfeng Evergreen. Through its operations in China, Hanfeng makes nitrogen and phosphate-based fertilizers for soybean, rice, corn, and wheat crops, as well as for lawns, trees, flowers, and other urban greenery. The company specializes in slow-release fertilizers, which unlike more traditional fertilizers, are coated or chemically altered for slow and controlled release into soil. It produces about 725,000 metric tons (or about 800,000 US tons) of fertilizer annually, targeting its products primarily to the growing agricultural market in China.

The Western Business Unit manufactures fertilizers for suppliers and also provides formulation services for private label products.

Though Incitec Pivot is Australia's largest producer of fertilizers, it plans to get even bigger by blowing things up. The company's main products are phosphate fertilizers (ammonium phosphates and superphosphates, primarily); it also produces urea and anhydrous ammonia. Incitec Pivot also manufactures industrial chemicals -- for water treatment and process manufacturing -- using by-products from the manufacturing process. The company was formed in 2003 through the merger of fertilizer makers Incitec and Pivot; Orica had owned 70% of Incitec Pivot until it sold that majority stake in 2006. Two years later Incitec Pivot bought explosives maker (and direct rival to Orica) Dyno Nobel for $3 billion.

The Dead Sea has given life to Israel Chemicals Limited (ICL). That body of water is rich in bromine, potash, salt, and magnesium -- minerals that ICL turns into specialty and agrochemicals, among other products. Bromine commonly is used in flame retardants, and potash is a common fertilizer. The company accounts for a third of the world's bromine production and 10% of the world's potash. It is also a major producer of magnesium. Although most of the company's chemicals are produced in Israel (from the Dead Sea), it also mines for fertilizers in Spain and the UK. Investment firm Israel Corporation, controlled by The Ofer Group, owns 53% of ICL.
