What Verde Agritech does

Verde AgriTech Ltd. is a UK-incorporated, TSX-listed (NPK; OTCMKTS VNPKF) agricultural technology company headquartered in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil, that produces specialty multinutrient potassium and silicon fertilizers from a proprietary glauconitic siltite feedstock mined at its Cerrado Verde project. Its core product is Kaapy® (also marketed as K Forte® / The Product®), a chloride-free, sodium-free multinutrient fertilizer delivering potassium plus approximately 70 trace elements with progressive nutrient release, and is layered with a family of specialty sub-products (BAKS®, Mondé®/Silício Forte®, Catu®, Ussu®, Miri®, Yba®, Ayra®) and five proprietary processing technologies — 3D Alliance, Micro S, N Keeper, Bio Revolution (with patent filed) and Dust Control. Verde sells directly to Brazilian farmers across crops (soybean, sugarcane, eucalyptus) and grew its client base from 28 (2017) to 1,223 (2022), with Super Greensand® marketed internationally.

The company generates revenue primarily through direct unit sales of these fertilizers at high gross margins (72% in FY2025), with no public list pricing; sales are quote-based. Two emerging platforms are being layered on top of the fertilizer base: (i) carbon removal credits developed under an exclusive November 2025 partnership with UNDO Carbon Ltd. via enhanced rock weathering, and (ii) a clay-hosted ionic-adsorption rare earths platform (Minas Americas Global Alliance) carved into a new wholly owned subsidiary, Magnes Rare Earths, intended for separate U.S. listing. FY2025 revenue was $16.6 million USD (down from $21.6M in FY2024) and Q1 2026 revenue fell 41% year-over-year to $1.7M amid tight agricultural credit in Brazil, with a $11.7M FY2025 net loss partially offset by Q3 2025's first positive EBITDA since Q2 2023 and ~BRL 9.4M in annualized cost savings. In May 2026 Verde announced a CEO transition from founder Cristiano Veloso (who moved to lead Magnes) to Reberth Machado effective June 1, 2026.

Core offering

Verde AgriTech mines glauconitic siltite at its Cerrado Verde Project in Minas Gerais, Brazil and produces specialty multinutrient potassium, silicon and magnesium fertilizers sold under brands including Kaapy/K Forte/The Product, Super Greensand, BAKS, Mondé, Catu, Ussu, Miri, Yba and Ayra. The company sells these chloride-free, sodium-free fertilizers with progressive nutrient release directly to farmers in Brazil and markets Super Greensand internationally. Verde is also commercializing carbon removal credits via enhanced rock weathering (with UNDO Carbon) and developing a clay-hosted rare earths platform through its Magnes Rare Earths subsidiary.

Product overview

Verde AgriTech operates a portfolio built around a single core multinutrient potash fertilizer — Kaapy® (also marketed as The Product® / K Forte®), made from Glauconitic Siltite — which is sold both in Brazil and internationally as Super Greensand®. Layered on top of this core offering are a family of specialty sub-products (BAKS®, Mondé®/Silício Forte®, Catu®, Ussu®, Miri®, Yba® and Ayra®) that target different crops, organic certification, micronutrient needs, and seed coating. The company also markets several proprietary processing technologies that modify or enhance the base products: 3D Alliance Technology (raw-material restructuring), Micro S Technology (sulfur micronization for BAKS®), N Keeper Technology (ammonia retention for nitrogen fertilizers), Bio Revolution Technology (microorganism incorporation, with K Forte® the first fertilizer to use it), and Dust Control Technology (application drift reduction). On top of its established fertilizer platform, Verde has begun layering in two new growth platforms: a carbon-removal credit offering developed with UNDO Carbon through enhanced rock weathering, and a rare-earths platform consolidated under the Magnes Rare Earths subsidiary via the Minas Americas Global Alliance Project. The offering is therefore a platform-plus-modules architecture: one core Glauconitic Siltite product feeds multiple branded sub-products and proprietary technologies, with carbon credits and rare earths added as separate growth platforms.

Scale indicators13 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Emerging players

• MP Materials Corp. U.S.-listed producer of rare earth materials, particularly magnet rare earths from the Mountain Pass mine in California. Comparable to Verde's Magnes Rare Earths subsidiary as an emerging player in the Western rare earth supply chain for clean energy and magnets.
• Lynas Rare Earths Limited: Australia-listed producer of separated rare earth materials including NdPr for magnets. Comparable to Verde's Magnes Rare Earths as an emerging player developing ex-China rare earth capacity, though Lynas is already in commercial production while Magnes is at the resource-definition stage.

Broad incumbents

• Yara International ASA: Norway-based global nitrogen and specialty crop nutrition company with significant presence in Latin America. Comparable to Verde as a broad incumbent serving Brazilian farmers with crop nutrition inputs, though Yara is dominated by nitrogen rather than potassium.
• BHP Group Limited: Global mining major developing the Jansen potash project in Saskatchewan. Comparable to Verde as a broad incumbent moving into the potash market, but at hyperscale and with a greenfield rather than operating asset base.
• ICL Group Ltd. Israel-based specialty fertilizers and specialty minerals producer with a strong specialty plant nutrition portfolio. Comparable to Verde as a broad incumbent in specialty plant nutrition and a global SOP/potash player, but with deeper R&D resources and a wider product portfolio.
• The Mosaic Company: Major U.S.-listed producer of potash and phosphate fertilizers with global distribution including Brazil. Comparable to Verde as a broad incumbent potash supplier serving Brazilian agriculture, though Mosaic's product mix is concentrated in commodity MOP and phosphates rather than Verde's specialty multinutrient K.
• Nutrien Ltd. World's largest crop inputs provider and a leading global potash producer via its Saskatoon-based operations. Comparable to Verde as a broad incumbent in the potash/fertilizer value chain with global distribution, but operates at vastly larger scale and across multiple nutrient categories.

Regional players

• Lavoro Limited: Largest Brazilian agricultural inputs retailer, distributing fertilizers, crop protection and specialty products to Brazilian growers. Comparable to Verde as a regional player focused exclusively on the Brazilian agricultural input market, though Lavoro is a retailer/distributor rather than a producer.

Direct peers

• Compass Minerals International: U.S.-listed producer of sulfate of potash (SOP), specialty plant nutrition, and industrial minerals. Comparable to Verde as a direct peer in specialty potassium fertilizers, though Compass also operates a large salt de-icing business and is more geographically diversified.
• K+S Aktiengesellschaft: German potash and salt specialist selling SOP/MOP and specialty fertilizer products globally. Highly comparable to Verde as a potash-focused player with specialty product lines, although K+S operates at a much larger scale and is more commodity-tilted.
