We Care Deeply About Our Communities

MAKING POSITIVE CONTRIBUTIONS AROUND THE WORLD

Mosaic’s mission—and the purpose behind all we do—is to help the world grow the food it needs. Fertilizer products are responsible for 50 percent of crop yields, and as one of the world’s leading producers of concentrated phosphate and crop nutrient products, we have a responsibility to contribute positively to global food security.

We also live in the communities where we operate, so doing our part to support local sustainability is something we care deeply about. We proudly support the strength and vibrancy of our neighbors through corporate and local giving and volunteerism. We believe that by contributing to meaningful initiatives and programs, we can make a positive impact on our local communities and around the world.

Food Security & Agricultural Productivity

This matters to us because:

The global population is expected to reach 9.8 billion by 2050. Experts estimate agricultural productivity will need to increase by 70 percent to feed the planet. Our work – production and distribution of vital crop nutrients – plays a role in addressing the challenge of food security.

Beyond a focus on maximizing crop yields, we are committed to agricultural productivity as a way to ensure the sustainability of our business and the viability and health of agricultural systems.

How we are managing this priority:

  • Producing and distributing high quality crop nutrients for farmers around the globe; providing agronomic expertise to maximize yields and achieve balanced crop nutrition on every acre of cropland
  • Promoting best practices to increase crop yields and maintain farmer profitability and efficiency​
  • Conducting small-plot trials focused on reducing environmental impact, improving soil health and nutrient use efficiency

Commitment:

Our Leadership on Climate Change, Commitment to Water Stewardship, Mosaic Principles and Priorities

We have the opportunity – and responsibility – to maintain strong commitments to the communities where we have operations. Our financial support is magnified by volunteerism and community involvement.

How we are managing this priority:

  • Hiring employees and contracting vendors from local communities
  • Offering competitive wages and benefits to our workforce
  • Developing our future workforce

Nutrient Stewardship

This matters to us because:

Poor application of fertilizer and other crop nutrition products can result in environmental impacts and less than optimal crop yields.

How we are managing this priority:

Supporting and promoting nutrient stewardship practices that achieve the agricultural benefits of fertilizers and reduce nutrient loss to environment
