The business case for diversity, equity and inclusion
The business case for diversity has never been stronger but to reap its benefits we also need equity and inclusion. In 2021, Yara’s Black Talent Initiative embarked on the road to eliminating racial discrimination and making Yara a more diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace.

Our strategy
We are broadening our business model
Over the past two decades, Yara’s business model has developed from focusing on our asset and product base – what we have, to focusing on farmers and complete solutions – how we can contribute.
We will continue to improve our fertilizer production and competitive edge, what we have, but we are increasingly aiming to expand our reach and offerings - tapping into the opportunities emerging in our business environment, how we can contribute.
We are geared to grow Yara and protect and improve the world we live in!
