Orica to Build New UAN Plant

Orica plans to construct a new UAN plant in Moree, in New South Wales, with construction to start in 2018, according to a Dec. 4 Bloomberg report. The new business, Orica Agriculture, will supply grain and cotton farmers in NSW and Queensland. Orica had told Green Markets earlier this year that it had begun supplying nitrogen products to farmers and was assessing possible UAN production.
