The division is responsible for the procurement, export, and payment settlement of fertilizers, primarily in North America. It also conducts market research and gathers information on agriculture in the region to support sourcing activities. Through these efforts, the division works to ensure a stable supply of essential agricultural materials for agricultural production in Japan.

The main products include fertilizer raw materials such as potassium chloride, potassium magnesium sulfate, and potassium sulfate. These materials are exported to Japan and are supplied to fertilizer manufacturers and farmers through Zen‑Noh.

In recent years, the global environment surrounding fertilizer raw materials has changed significantly, making it increasingly important to establish stable and reliable sourcing structures. In response, the division is strengthening relationships with existing suppliers while actively developing new supply sources across the Americas, Europe, and the Middle East.

Through these initiatives, the division contributes from a sourcing perspective to supporting farmers in Japan in maintaining stable agricultural production while adapting to changes in global supply and demand.
