Industry Partners
It is important that AFSA continue to develop strong and effective relationships with
- members through networking and capacity building opportunities
- agricultural agencies to promote the sustainable use of fertilisers and soil ameliorants
- key suppliers to the fertiliser industry to be able to negotiate significant benefits for members
To be able to do this, we are pleased to be working with the following partners to ensure we can represent the interests of our members in respect to government, the environment and the fertiliser industry in general
