Nutrien Ag Solutions again maintains its position as the country’s leading retailer, with more than $1 billion in sales, 45 states served, and 1,500-plus retail outlets. This marks the 41st year Nutrien has appeared in the CropLife 100.

There was also significant movement at the top of the list (A.K.A. “the over $1 billion club”) during 2024. Two large Indiana-based cooperatives – Co-Alliance and Ceres Solutions – formally combined their businesses to create Keystone Cooperative. This not only added a new member to the “Big Seven” ag retailers (now “Big Eight”) but boosted the overall market share of these top companies among all CropLife 100 ag retailers by 3%, to 70%.

Here’s how the entire top 10 ag retailers shook out:

*Nutrien Ag Solutions

*Helena Agri-Enterprises

*GROWMARK

*Simplot Grower Solutions

*CHS

*GreenPoint AG

*Wilbur-Ellis

*Keystone Cooperative

*Agtegra Cooperative

*MFA
