CONFERENCE PREVIEW
Fertilizer Latino Americano welcomes you to Miami!
Argus in collaboration with CRU will convene the 2024 Fertilizer Latino Americano conference at the Hilton Downtown Miami, Miami, Florida, 5-7 February 2024.
Argus in conjunction with CRU are hosting Fertilizer Latino Americano (FLA) 2024. We are delighted to be returning to the vibrant and exciting US city of Miami on 5-7 February for Latin America’s biggest fertilizer industry networking event.
With more than 700 delegates due to attend, FLA 2024 is not to be missed. The conference, as always, takes place at a crucial time of the year for the market. Professionals from across Latin America’s fertilizer value chain are therefore expected to attend – to network, negotiate, and learn about the latest trends and opportunities.
The last two years have seen fertilizer markets adjust to new trade flows and unforeseen circumstances, with Latin America continuing to play a central role in global markets. Topics up for discussion at FLA 2024 include the impact of geopolitical events on fertilizer trade flows, sustainability and decarbonisation.
FLA provides unrivalled networking opportunities, with an expanded and sold-out exhibition hall that includes a barista cafe, networking bar and — new for 2024 — a golf simulator sponsored by Nutrien. These improvements ensure there will be more opportunities than ever to meet up with contacts, both old and new, to discuss and make deals for the business year ahead.
