Responsibly feed the world and protect the planet

This is Yara’s mission and is both simple and very ambitious. 

Yara grows knowledge to responsibly feed the world and protect the planet, to fulfill our vision of a collaborative society, a world without hunger and a planet respected.

To meet these commitments, we have taken the lead in developing digital farming tools for precision farming and work closely with partners throughout the whole food value chain to develop more climate-friendly crop nutrition solutions.

In addition, we are committed to working towards sustainable mineral fertilizer production. We foster an open culture of diversity and inclusion that promotes the safety and integrity of our employees, contractors, business partners, and society at large.

Founded in 1905 to solve the emerging famine in Europe, Yara has a worldwide presence with around 17,000 employees and operations in over 60 countries. In 2020, Yara reported revenues of USD 11.6 billion.

In Yara, we do not talk about CSR. Instead, sustainability is an integral part of what we do. That is why we have made the UN Sustainable Development Goals as part of our business model.
