BASF will be expanding its inoculant manufacturing facilities in Saskatoon, investing $10 million towards the expansion.
The existing facility is used to produce seed- and soil-borne inoculants. According to the Western Producer, the expansion is aimed at meeting the increasing global demand for BASF products, including the company’s latest product, Nodulator Duo.
Nodulator Duo is a granular inoculant for peas and lentils that contains beneficial rhizobia bacteria and creates a biofilm to protect root systems.
BASF also plans to expand or upgrade eight other North American agri-product manufacturing facilities across North America, investing nearly $828 million altogether.
