Apropos kunstgjødsel så sier Sivertsen på H1:
Q:
Do you see yourself as a competitor to Yara or other fertilizer companies?
A:
Well, LNC is not a fertilizer with nutrients; it’s a mineral-based compound. LNC , however, enables soil to retain not just water but also nutrients, i.e., fertilizers, in a better way. That may, in turn, lead to reducing consumption of fertilizers and thereby reduce financial spending on products from fertilizer companies.
Companies like Yara are not concerned about this because we expand their markets (grow the pie) by creating new agricultural land and restoring land that’s gone barren. At the same time, we can also help solve problems fertilizer companies focus on, such as reducing fertilizer leaching. Reducing leaching (causing eutrophication and acidification of ocean) is important for these companies. Working together, we can achieve significant value in addressing nitrogen leaching challenges, growing the market, and feeding our planet more responsibly.
