The acquisition unites AgroLiquidʼs expertise in liquid fertilizer solutions with Monty’s specialized knowledge in soil health and humic technology.
AgroLiquid, a leader in high-efficiency crop liquid fertilizer solutions, today announced the acquisition of Monty’s Plant Food Company, a Louisville-based specialist in soil health and plant nutrition technology. The acquisition, effective Jan. 1, 2025, brings together two family-founded businesses that excel in agricultural innovation and share a commitment to farmer success.
This combination allows us to bring crop nutrition technologies to growers that wouldnʼt otherwise be available to them.
“This strategic combination allows us to bring crop nutrition technologies to growers that wouldnʼt otherwise be available to them,” said Nick Bancroft, CEO of AgroLiquid. “While both companies share the same goals in advancing agricultural innovation, our different approaches to achieving them will create new opportunities to optimize nutrient efficiency and productivity for growers.”
The acquisition unites AgroLiquidʼs expertise in liquid fertilizer solutions with Monty’s specialized knowledge in soil health and humic technology. Both companies will maintain their distinct brands and continue operating independently through the 2025 growing season.
“Joining forces with AgroLiquid marks an exciting new chapter for Monty’s Plant Food,” said Jeff Sangalli, CEO of Montyʼs Plant Food Company. “Our shared farmer-first philosophy and commitment to innovation made this a natural fit. By combining our complementary strengths, we’re positioned to deliver even greater value to the agricultural industry.”
The integration will focus on leveraging operational capabilities, including manufacturing, warehousing and storage infrastructure. Following the acquisition, Monty’s Plant Food will continue operating under its current name as a privately owned company, with Jeff Sangalli continuing to lead the business.
