What this NAICS covers
NAICS 325311 covers manufacturing nitrogenous fertilizers such as urea, ammonium nitrate, and ammonium sulfate through chemical synthesis, granulation or prilling, blending, drying, and packaging into finished fertilizer products for agricultural or turf use.
Federal opportunities under 325311 typically involve supplying bulk or bagged nitrogenous fertilizer product lines, meeting material specifications, batch testing and certificates of analysis, shipping bulk quantities by rail or truck, and complying with hazardous-material handling and reporting requirements.

FAQ
What work fits NAICS 325311?
- Manufacture and deliver bulk urea granules with certificates of analysis and specified nitrogen content, packaged and palletized to contract labeling and shipping requirements.
- Produce ammonium nitrate or ammonium sulfate in specified grades, perform batch quality testing (moisture, nitrogen assay), and provide COAs for each lot.
- Operate prilling or granulation lines to produce specified particle size distributions and supply finished fertilizer in bulk hoppers or retail bags.
- Blend finished nitrogenous product lines to customer formula and provide certified packaging, lot traceability, and transport of hazardous materials.
When is NAICS 325311 a weak fit?
- Wholesale fertilizer distribution and resale that only purchases finished fertilizer for inventory and delivery lacks the chemical synthesis, granulation, or primary production steps required for this manufacturing code.
- Fertilizer blending operations that only mix purchased finished fertilizers without primary chemical production lack the synthesis, granulation, or prilling functions described in this manufacturing classification.
- Phosphate-based fertilizer manufacturing or specialty micronutrient chemical production uses different primary feedstocks and processes and is therefore outside the nitrogenous fertilizer manufacturing scope.
What solicitation language points to NAICS 325311?
- Line items specifying product names like urea, ammonium nitrate, or ammonium sulfate with required nitrogen assay, particle size, and moisture tolerances.
- Contract requires certificates of analysis, batch numbers, lot traceability, and laboratory test reports for each delivered shipment.
- Performance requirements for handling hazardous materials, DOT shipping papers, and delivery by bulk tanker, railcar unloading, or palletized hazardous-product packaging.
