Business
Chobi Company Limited is a South Korea-based manufacturer and distributor of fertilizers, operating as a subsidiary of Kyung Nong Corporation. Founded in 1955 and headquartered in Seoul, the company specializes in composite fertilizers including compound fertilizers for basal dressing used on crops such as tobacco, peanuts, vegetables, garlic, onions, fruit trees, chestnuts, rice seedbeds, paddy rice, potatoes, and turfs. It also offers compound fertilizers for top dressing applicable to horticulture, fruit trees, and paddy rice; bulk blending fertilizers; controlled release compound fertilizers for paddy rice, vegetables, and home greens; hydroponic compound fertilizers; and liquid fertilizers. Additionally, Chobi engages in the manufacture of bed soils and organic fertilizers. Recently, the company has maintained its position under Kyung Nong Corporation's ownership with continued product development focusing on controlled release fertilizers and organic fertilizer lines, though no public record indicates major new acquisitions or partnerships within the last 1-2 years. Its product offerings serve agricultural sectors primarily in South Korea, supporting diverse crop cultivation with advanced fertilizer technologies and formulations tailored to optimize crop yield and soil management.
