Czechia ยท
AGROFERT is a group based in Prague, Czechia, whose businesses cover several stages of the agrifood chain, from agricultural inputs to the sale of processed food. Its divisions include chemistry, agriculture, food processing, forestry and timbering, technology and transportation, and renewable resources and fuels. The fertiliser producers LAT Nitrogen and SKW Piesteritz belong to the group, and in September 2026 AGROFERT announced AGF Nitrogen, a subholding company that coordinates its European chemicals division.
On the farm side, AGROFERT companies produce crops and livestock, make seeds and feed, and buy and sell agricultural commodities and inputs. The group also offers storage capacity, transport and technical services. For a farmer this can mean buying fertiliser, seed and feed from one part of the group and selling grain to another, with storage and haulage in between. Each service is provided by a local group company, and purchasing, storage and sales terms are agreed separately.
Size of the business
AGROFERT reports approximately 28,000 employees and operations in 21 countries. These figures cover the whole group, not only its fertiliser or farming businesses.
