In 1958, in Fergana, the government decided to build a factory for the production of nitrogen fertilizers and, through hard work, in September 1962 the first product, ammonium nitrate, was produced.
Since then, it's been 50 years - half a century. These were the years of really intense and hard work, great creativity, continuous research, learning and growth.
Today, the open joint-stock company "Fargonaazot" is one of the largest industrial enterprises in the structure of "Uzkimyosanoat". The factory’s products not only meet the demand for agricultural products, but also are exported to foreign countries.
In particular, during the years of independence, there was a significant growth and development of the company in all sectors and spheres. Thanks to the merits of the first president of our country, I.A. Karimov, the chemical industry began its development on the basis of modern equipment and technologies for a set period of time. For the years of independence here, the production department of the defoliant of magnesium chlorate, which meets the international environmental standards, has started its work. Also, shops for the production of ammonium nitrate and concentrated nitric acid have been completed and put into operation.
