Key Considerations

• 📊 The PlasmaLeap funding points to Yara backing on farm, lower impact fertilizer production that could influence how its crop nutrition offering evolves over time.

• 📊 Keep an eye on how much capital Yara allocates to similar ventures, any pilot project uptake with farmers, and whether these efforts start to show up in segment disclosures.

• ⚠️ Forecasts pointing to an average 13.2% annual earnings decline over the next 3 years are a key risk when thinking about how much patience to have with longer term technology bets.
