The European Commission approved on October 29, 2026 the acquisition of 50% of Jorf Fertilizers Company I by Koch Ag & Energy Solutions, with OCP Nutricrops keeping the other 50%. JFC1 can produce up to 1.2 million tonnes of phosphate fertilizer per year at Jorf Lasfar, and the transaction's completion and price remain to be confirmed.
