Canada's Fertilizer Future Breaks Ground at Port of Johnstown
V6 Agronomy Launches Low-Carbon Terminal to Reshore Critical Supply Chains JOHNSTOWN, ON, July 30, 2025 /CNW/ - On July 29, a shovel hit the ground in the Township of Edwardsburgh Cardinal (TWPEC), marking the official launch of Canada's first low- carbon, enhanced efficiency fertilizers (EEF's) and commercial phosphate fertilizer terminal. The project – led by V6 Agronomy in partnership with the Port of Johnstown – is a catalytic step toward food security, climate-smart trade, and national supply chain sovereignty. "We're doing more than building a structure – we're building a supply chain solution," said Ryan Brophy, CEO of V6 Agronomy. "This is a new chapter for Canadian agriculture – where resilience, efficiency, and international trade intersect in a circular, farmer-first corridor." Built for the Future of Canadian Agriculture The terminal marks phase one of a broader national infrastructure strategy. The initial structure – building #1 – will support vessel discharge capacity up to 18,000 tonnes and is the first of four planned buildings that will collectively store up to 150,000 tonnes of crop input materials on-site. From this facility, the V6 team will efficiently receive, store, and distribute a range of critical crop inputs, including enhanced efficiency fertilizers (EEFs) and commercial phosphates – a nutrient essential to modern agriculture and one that Canada currently produces none of domestically." Canadian farmers have long depended on U.S. imports routed through New Orleans and the Mississippi corridor, creating price and timing vulnerabilities. V6 Agronomy's facility will help reshore that dependency while connecting directly to the Canadian prairies by rail and local farms by truck, using a turnkey vessel-to-rail and rail-to-vessel configuration. Circular Trade, Carbon-Smart Strategy In collaboration with CN Rail, V6 is implementing a circular logistics model to reduce empty rail and vessel returns. Outbound phosphate shipments by rail will be paired with return loads of Canadian lentils, pulses, potash, grains, and sulphur – all high-demand commodities in the EU, Middle East, North Africa, and Asia. "This is a priority benchmark for how we do things differently," said Brophy. "We're eliminating inefficiencies, reducing emissions, and leveraging assets that already exist. The Port is a jewel for the region – marine, rail, and storage in one place." Community-Backed, Nationally Significant The groundbreaking drew attendees from across the agricultural, investment, and political spectrum – including MP Michael Barrett, Mayor Tory Deschamps, and Port GM Leslie Drynan. "This is an all-hands-on-deck success – built on leadership, local collaboration, and smart investment," said MP Michael Barrett, who previously served on the Port Management Board. "TWPEC could give the upper levels of government a lesson in how to get these things done," added Michael Jiggins, representing MPP Steve Clark. A Capital Raise for Aligned Partners With construction underway, V6 Agronomy is entering its next phase: securing strategic capital to accelerate infrastructure development and build national distribution capacity. A formal capital raise has been launched to attract mission-aligned partners seeking long-term, resilient investment returns in clean infrastructure and food systems. About V6 Agronomy V6 Agronomy is a Canadian-owned, farmer-first company reshaping how crop inputs are made, moved, and managed. Headquartered in Eastern Ontario, V6 is building a low-missions, circular corridor to bring fertilizer, grain, and climate-smart commodities to market – globally connected, locally grounded.

Ken Hinkley slumps to unwanted record as Adelaide romp to biggest Showdown win in history
Adelaide's Riley Thilthorpe has dominated a record 98-point belting of arch foe Port Adelaide which lifts the Crows to top spot on the AFL ladder. Thilthorpe booted three goals in a 20.13 (133) to 5.5 (35) victory on a sodden Saturday night at Adelaide Oval. The margin was the biggest in Showdown history and consigns departing Port Adelaide coach Ken Hinkley to an unwanted record in his final season. He cut a dejected figure as he walked off the field following the post-match presentations. The long-time coach now has four matches remaining before he bows out. The Crows will sleep on top of the ladder, though Collingwood will likely re-take pole position on Sunday with a win over Richmond. Adelaide will finish the round no lower than second after logging five consecutive victories for the first time under sixth-year coach Matthew Nicks. The sole blemish on Saturday night was a hamstring injury to Max Michalanney, who was substituted in the third quarter. The 201cm-tall Thilthorpe defied the heavy rain with his influential 19-disposal display featuring six clearances, and veteran Taylor Walker and Ben Keays booted three goals each. Adelaide's Jake Soligo (35 disposals) and Sam Berry (20 touches) scored two goals each. On-baller James Peatling (26, one goal) and captain and 150-gamer Jordan Dawson (21, one goal) were also prominent, while Mark Keane and Josh Worrell ruled in defence. The Power slumped to an 8-11 win-loss record and added another player to their lengthy injury list with Lachie Jones substituted because of a corked thigh. Port vice-captain Zak Butters (34 touches), Ollie Wines (25) and skipper Connor Rozee (22) battled against the tide while Jed McEntee kicked two goals. The match began bizarrely when Port's Miles Bergman roved the first bounce and launched a 50 metre kick - the wrong way. Adelaide's Darcy Fogarty marked the Bergman blunder and missed the set shot, but his side enjoyed early control. The Crows created an ominous 3.6 to 0.1 lead before Port hit back with three consecutive majors of their own - a stunning McEntee shot from a boundary line reduced their deficit to five points at quarter-time. Adelaide then produced a game-breaking burst, scoring four goals to none in the second stanza as Thilthorpe took control. The big Crow scored with an audacious 50m left-footer on the run as Adelaide crafted a 29-point half-time advantage, 7.8 to 3.3. Thilthorpe had 14 disposals, his eye-catching goal and six clearances for the half and extended his influence with the opening goal of the third quarter. The strike was the first of five goals to Port's two for the term as Adelaide led by a whopping 50 points at three quarter-time, 12.11 to 5.3. And Thilthorpe again took centre stage with the initial goal of a last term when Adelaide piled on eight goals to nil to cruise to victory and a 30-28 overall record against Port.

Free activities for young people back at Milford Waterfront
The Under the Bridge scheme in Milford Haven will run every Tuesday and Friday evening from 6pm to 8pm throughout the summer holidays, starting on July 22 and ending on August 29. Designed for young people aged 11 to 17, the sessions will take place beneath Hakin Bridge at Milford Waterfront and are intended to provide a safe, engaging environment for socialising and personal development. Emily Jones, stakeholder engagement executive at the Port of Milford Haven, said: "The number of children and young adults taking part in Under the Bridge is growing year on year, with hundreds benefiting from last summer's activities. "The Port of Milford Haven works in partnership with Milford Youth Matters to help provide a safe and enjoyable waterway for everyone, and to create opportunities that support a vibrant and prosperous community in Pembrokeshire. "The amazing work done by Milford Youth Matters has been supported by the port for almost a decade, and we can really see and feel the difference being made by this charity at Milford Waterfront. "We encourage all young people to come down and take part in these fun sessions." The scheme offers a variety of free activities including sport, creative workshops, volunteering opportunities and games, along with refreshments and a safe space to relax. It is a joint project between Milford Youth Matters and the Port of Milford Haven, created to offer positive alternatives for young people and reduce antisocial behaviour in the area. Last year, more than 220 young people took part in the sessions, and the scheme was recognised with the Wales Outstanding Work in Community Safety Award from StreetGames. Dayle Gibby, Milford Youth Matters coordinator and organiser of Under the Bridge, said: "It's fantastic that Milford Youth Matters and the Port of Milford Haven have teamed up again to host and deliver Under the Bridge in 2025. "Year after year, there has been a profound impact on the local community through the provision of a safe, welcoming space for young people to have fun and learn, volunteer and connect. "As a detached youth programme, Under the Bridge engages young people in spaces and at times where antisocial behaviour may take place, flipping that potential into something fun, insightful and developmental." No booking is required to take part in the sessions.
