CF Industries, JERA Co., and Mitsui & Co. have begun construction of Blue Point One, a $3.7 billion low-carbon ammonia plant in Louisiana.

CF Industries holds a 40% stake in the joint venture.

Secretary Brooke Rollins Posts On X "BIG DAY AHEAD FOR AMERICAN FERTILIZER. Headed to Louisiana, where we will break ground on two major projects bringing critical fertilizer production back to American soil. More American investment. More American production. Lower costs and stronger supply chains for American farmers. Stay tuned."
