Rabat – OCP Nutricrops has celebrated surpassing five million tonnes of Triple Super Phosphate (TSP) fertilizer production.
In a press release today, OCP Nutricrops said it achieved this result thanks to its strategic TSP Hub program, which operates from the Jorf Lasfar industrial platform. The Manufacturing SBU leads the program in collaboration with OCP Nutricrops, OFAS, and JESA. The hub relies on the use of unconventional water resources as part of OCP Group’s sustainability strategy.
TSP is a key concentrated phosphate fertilizer that contains over 90% of phosphorus in a plant-available form. This makes it suitable for nutrient-deficient soils and smart fertilization strategies, the statement added.
OCP Nutricrops stressed the importance of the program and its ability to address challenges of demanding and customized agriculture by delivering fertilizer production tailored to the diverse and growing needs of the market.
It uses a “flexible industrial process that allows precise integration of nutrients and additives.”
The plator works to meet the specific needs of farmers according to their soils and crops, providing industrial agility and speed in developing new and customized formulations.
The hub has two production lines, each with an annual capacity of 500,000 tonnes.
OCP Nutricrops also announced an ambitious program to adapt nitrogen fertilizer that is underway. The new initiative seeks to integrate new equipment and modify existing facilities to enable them to produce TSP.
Youssef El Bari, CEO of OCP Nutricrops, said the TSP Hub represents a “major step in our phosphate fertilizer production strategy,” as it strengthens the group’s ability to deliver high agnostic value fertilizers that meet the specific needs of soil and farmers across the world.
He further continued that TSP Hub also enhances the group’s “industrial precision, performance, and capacity.”
Ahmed Mahrou, Managing Director of the Manufacturing SBU, also spoke of the importance of the TSP Hub, explaining that it reflects the industrial transformation led by the Manufacturing SBU to address the challenges of fertilizer customization amid increasing agronomic diversification.
“It marks the emergence of an ambidextrous, agile, and customer-focused industrial model, where the production tool becomes a strategic lever,” Mahrou stated.
He pointed out the Manufacturing SBU’s commitment towards delivering an increasing number of customized products to highly differentiated needs.
“This dynamic illustrates our commitment to putting industrial performance – in flexibility, capacity, and adaptability – at the service of sustainable value creation,” he added.
