3,400,000 Metric Tons of Carbon Emissions Eliminated
RhizoSorb has proven its capability to reduce carbon emissions by 3.4 million metric tons, an amount equivalent to the emissions that would be mitigated if all corn in the United States were grown with RhizoSorb technology.
Efficiency Meets Responsibility
RhizoSorb was designed to transform the environmental impact of phosphate, ensuring more applied phosphate is utilized by crops and not lost to the environment.
50%
RhizoSorb fertilizers increase phosphorus efficiency by up to 50%, allowing growers to get more out of every application.

A lifecycle assessment from mine to farm gate shows RhizoSorb 8-39-0 can cut carbon emissions.
50%
RhizoSorb decreases nutrient losses through leaching and runoff, supporting more responsible and effective nutrient management practices.
Industry Leading Life Cycle Assessment of Phosphorus Fertilizer
In 2023, we partnered with Sustainable Solutions Corp to complete a life cycle assessment, verifying that RhizoSorb has a lower carbon intensity than traditional fertilizers.
Held for Roots, not Run-off
Research in New Zealand compared phosphorus run-off with RhizoSorb 8-39-0 to conventional MAP 11-52-0. The results showed how RhizoSorb® helps keep more phosphorus where it belongs—in the soil and available to crops.

How the U.S. Can Make the Most of Remaining Domestic Phosphorus Reserves
Phosphorus, a vital nutrient for plant life, underpins agricultural production and global food security. But where does this essential element come from? The answer lies in a seemingly unremarkable rock called phosphorus rock, or phosphorite. RhizoSorb is an economical choice for both growers and retailers. “Compared to using MAP or DAP, growers will apply a little less and see about a 10% cost savings on a per acre basis.
