USDA backs fertilizer projects

The US Department of Agriculture is giving $35 million in grants to seven US-based fertilizer projects. The USDA created the program in 2022 to help domestic fertilizer producers expand plants or adopt new technologies; it has so far awarded $287 million. The latest round includes $4 million to expand a California facility where Nitricity produces low-carbon fertilizer using a plasma reactor . AdvanSix will receive $12 million to increase production of ammonium sulfate, a coproduct of nylon production.
