Overview
Though CF Industries wants to give you some DAP, it doesn't want to bump fists with you as an informal greeting. The company is an interregional agricultural firm that manufactures and markets nitrogenous and phosphatic fertilizers (including diammonium phosphate, or DAP). It operates a network of manufacturing and distribution facilities, primarily in the Midwest, through which it offers products worldwide. CF offered to buy fertilizer producer Terra Industries for $2.1 billion in 2009 but was rebuffed by Terra's Board. Soon after that offer, Canadian fertilizers firm Agrium offered to buy CF Industries for $4.1 billion, but CF, still committed to buying Terra Industries, professed no interest in the deal.
