CF INDS HLDGS INC Profile

Though CF Industries wants to give you some DAP, it doesn't want to bump fists with you as an informal greeting. The company is an interregional agricultural firm that manufactures and markets nitrogenous and phosphatic fertilizers (including diammonium phosphate, or DAP). It operates a network of manufacturing and distribution facilities, primarily in the Midwest, through which it offers products worldwide. The company changed its structure from a cooperative to a holding company when it began to trade publicly in 2005. It had been owned by eight regional agricultural co-ops, including Land O'Lakes, GROWMARK, and CHS.
