Mosaic Co. is one of the world’s leading producers and marketers of concentrated phosphate and potash crop nutrients. The company’s primary business activities center on the extraction, processing and distribution of phosphate rock, phosphate-based fertilizers and potash products. These core nutrients are essential components in modern agriculture, supporting crop yields and soil health across a range of farming applications.
In its phosphate segment, Mosaic operates mining and production facilities that convert phosphate rock into concentrated phosphates, finished phosphate fertilizers and feed phosphates for animal nutrition. Its potash segment encompasses the mining and refining of potash ore, which is then sold as muriate of potash, sulfate of potash and other specialty potash blends. Mosaic also offers crop nutrition solutions, including micronutrient blends and application services designed to optimize nutrient uptake and enhance farm productivity.
Founded in 2004 through the combination of the phosphate business of Cargill and IMC Global, Mosaic established its headquarters in Tampa, Florida. Since its formation, the company has pursued strategic expansions and capital investments to increase production capacity and improve operational efficiency. Mosaic has also invested in environmental and reclamation projects to support sustainable mining practices and community stewardship.
Mosaic serves agricultural markets around the globe, with major mining operations in North America (Florida, Louisiana and Saskatchewan) and South America (Brazil). Its extensive distribution network includes port terminals, warehousing and logistics facilities, enabling the company to deliver fertilizers to farmers and distributors across key growing regions. Through ongoing research and collaboration with growers, Mosaic continues to develop products and services aimed at advancing sustainable agriculture worldwide.
