With origins dating back more than 100 years, Nufarm Limited (ASX:NUF) is a global developer and manufacturer of crop protection solutions and seeds. Nufarm was founded in Melbourne in the 1960s.

According to Nufarm, part of the company’s success can be attributed to the fact that it works closely with farmers, advisors and distributors to “help farmers grow a better tomorrow”.
Nufarm’s products are designed to protect commercial crops from a variety of pests, weeds, and diseases, thereby maximising crop yields. The company prides itself on “turning world-leading scientific breakthroughs into local solutions”. Nufarm’s seeds business spans canola, sorghum and sunflower seeds.
In addition to product supplies, Nufarm delivers support and services designed to ensure its customers are able to source the right products for their requirements.
