The International Fertilizer Society organizes a Technical Conference, covering aspects of fertilizer production, handling and fertilizer usage.

The conference is about topics that are both topical and of substance, by leading researchers and practitioners within the industry, most of which are accompanied by detailed written papers. The conference is structured to provide ample time for valuable discussion and networking, including a conference dinner, which online events cannot replicate. The value of this for those with a technical focus is enhanced by the non-commercial, collegiate atmosphere, due to the Society’s culture of commercial neutrality and independence.

Subjects include the reduction of fertilizer production carbon footprint, new technologies to better process low quality sources of phosphate, recycled sources of phosphate, improvements in production process control, the management of aging facilities, emissions control, and practical aspects of health and safety management.
