The Argus Fertilizer Europe Conference was held in Lisbon on October 17-19. The city of innovation invited us to join the discussion of development prospects and the most important challenges of the industry as part of the largest event for the European fertilizer trade industry.
Our team got a valuable opportunity to exchange experience with global market opinion leaders at the Conference.
Conference insights
More than 670 participants in the Conference were waiting for the start to join the presentations and discussions on technology forecasts, European market developments, evidence of the effectiveness or failures of popular methods of reducing the carbon footprint of freight transportation, and many other topics on the agenda. The conference was held at the grand EPIC SANA Lisboa Hotel.
To begin with, we were greeted by our welcoming hosts at the cozy Estufa Fria Botanical Garden, where we set ourselves in an almost festive mood of energy as we mingled with our dear clients and partners we met.

Our three-day experience at the Argus Fertilizer Europe Conference was intense and left us with many thoughts and valuable material to study. The key focus of the conference was to highlight the predominant position of fertilizers in global food production and logistics operations to improve the global market. The speakers' reports were aimed at finding a common approach to optimizing global and regional trade, implementing environmental initiatives, and getting acquainted with industry trends for 2024 and lessons we should learn from 2023.
The Argus Fertilizer Europe Conference agenda was packed. Many representatives of the world's businesses gathered in-depth analytics and shared important insights on topics such as the following:
- Understanding of the State Secretary of Agriculture (speaker: Portuguese Minister of Agriculture);
- Overview of European markets and current challenges in pricing and process optimization;
- Balancing supply and demand for gas markets;
- Methods of tracking CO2 emissions;
- Cooperation of regions of the world for the integration of the fertilizer supply chain;
- and much more.
