Re: Agrium 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan benefits of the Agrium 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan (the Plan) as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for plan benefits for the year ended December 31, 2012. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Plan was not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly in all material respects, the net assets available for plan benefits of the Agrium 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the changes in net assets available for plan benefits for the year ended December 31, 2012 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedules of Assets (Held at End of Year) and of Reportable Transactions as of or for the year ended December 31, 2012 are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are supplementary information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. Such information is the responsibility of the Plan’s management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves. In our opinion, the information is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements as a whole.

401(k) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN
Notes to the Financial Statements
December 31, 2012
(U.S. dollars)
The following description of the Agrium 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan (the Plan) is provided for general information purposes only. Participants should refer to the Plan document for a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions. The Plan sponsor, Agrium U.S. Inc. (the Company), is a subsidiary of Agrium Inc. (Agrium).
The Plan is a defined contribution plan established for the benefit of eligible employees of the Company. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).
The trustee of the Plan at December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012 was T. Rowe Price Trust Company.
As a result of the decertification of the Cincinnati, Ohio Union, employees in the former union and their account balances from their Union 401(k) Plan were transferred into this Plan in 2012.
Eligible participants under the Plan are automatically enrolled with a two percent contribution unless the participant chooses not to contribute to the Plan. The Plan has an automatic step-up feature whereby participant contributions will be increased by one percent annually until the participant’s contribution rate reaches six percent, unless the participant elects otherwise. Participants can elect to contribute up to 75 percent of their annual compensation. Individual participant contributions are subject to annual Internal Revenue Code (IRC) limitations: greater than 50 years of age is $22,500; less than 50 years of age is $17,000 for 2012. Effective January 1, 2008, all eligible employees receive a six percent basic contribution from the Company. Eligible employees also receive additional Company contributions between one percent and nine percent based on their age and years of service. The Company also contributes a matching contribution in the amount of 50 percent of the first six percent of the employee’s voluntary contributions. Participants may also contribute amounts representing distributions from other qualified plans. Total contributions cannot exceed limits as defined by the IRC.
| | b) | Participant eligibility and plan entry |
Employees of the Company are eligible to participate in the Plan if they are regular full-time employees who are not leased employees and are not represented by a collective bargaining unit of the Company’s participating subsidiaries or affiliated companies or represented by a collective bargaining unit that does not provide for employees’ participation in the Plan. Regular full-time employees are enrolled into the Plan as soon as practical after they begin working with the Company. Employees who are not otherwise ineligible employees, and who are scheduled to work at least 1,000 hours each calendar year, are also eligible to participate. Such employees are enrolled into the Plan as of the first day of the calendar quarter that coincides with or follows a 12 consecutive month period in which they are credited with at least 1,000 hours of service. The first 12 month period begins on the employee’s date of hire. The second and all succeeding 12 month periods are the calendar year.
Participants are immediately vested in their contributions, the Company’s contributions and actual earnings thereon.

401(k) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN
Notes to the Financial Statements
December 31, 2012
(U.S. dollars)
Distributions from the Plan may be made to a participant upon death, total disability, retirement, financial hardship or termination of employment. In-service withdrawals are also permitted after a participant attains age 59 1/2. Upon termination of employment, a participant whose vested account balance is greater than $1,000 may elect to receive a distribution of his or her account balance, leave the vested account balance in the Plan until a date not to exceed April 1 of the year following the year in which the participant reaches age 70 1/2, or request a direct rollover. A participant with a vested account balance that is $1,000 or less will be required to receive his or her account balance in cash as a lump-sum payment. For all distributions, if a lump-sum payment is elected, any portion of a participant’s account that is invested in the Agrium Inc. Common Stock Fund may be distributed as cash or in common shares of Agrium Inc., at the election of the participant.
Participants may make withdrawals, not to exceed their pretax contributions, to satisfy one of the immediate and heavy financial needs as described in the Plan document. However, participants may not defer salary for six months thereafter.
| | e) | Administrative expenses |
The Company paid certain administrative expenses on behalf of the Plan for the year ended December 31, 2012. Participants are charged a nominal fee each quarter to help offset plan administrative expenses.
| | f) | Notes receivable from participants |
Participants may borrow from their accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum equal to the lesser of 50 percent of their account balance or $50,000, reduced by (a) the participant’s highest outstanding loan balance from the Plan during the one-year period ending on the day before the loan is made and (b) the participant’s outstanding loan balance from the Plan on the day before the loan is made. Loans must be repaid within five years except for those loans taken out for the purchase of a primary residence. The loans are secured by the balance in the participant’s account and bear interest at the prime rate plus one percent as published quarterly in the Wall Street Journal. Principal and interest is paid through monthly payroll deductions. Loans outstanding as of December 31, 2012 bear interest rates ranging from 4.25 percent to 8.75 percent.
Each participant’s account is credited with the participant’s contributions and allocations of (a) the Company’s contributions, (b) Plan earnings and losses and (c) an allocation of administrative expenses.
Allocations are based on the participant’s earnings or account balances, as defined. The benefit a participant is entitled to is the benefit that can be provided from the participant’s vested account.

(U.S. dollars)
| 2. | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of changes in net assets during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Distributions are recorded when paid.
| | d) | Valuation of investments and income recognition |
As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Plan’s investments are reported at fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
A three level hierarchy is used to disclose assets and liabilities measured at fair value. Assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input significant to the fair value measurement.
The three levels are defined as follows:
Level 1 – Observable inputs based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2 – Observable inputs based on quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in inactive markets, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, or inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that reflect an entity’s own assumptions about what inputs a market participant would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances.
The Plan’s investments are categorized as Level 1 and Level 2 as shown in note 5.
The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value. There have been no changes in the methodologies used at December 31, 2012 and 2011.

AGRIUM
401(k) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN
Notes to the Financial Statements
December 31, 2012
(U.S. dollars)
Mutual funds: Valued at the net asset value (NAV) of shares held by the Plan at year end.
Collective trust fund: Valued at the NAV per unit based on contract value, as calculated by the Plan’s external advisor.
Common trust funds: Valued at the trust NAV per unit, adjusted for trustee fees accrued daily (as applicable).
Common stock: Valued at the closing price reported on the active market on which the individual securities are traded.
The preceding methods described may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, although the Plan believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine fair value of certain financial instruments would result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.
Investment transactions are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Net appreciation includes the Plan’s gains and losses on investments bought and sold as well as held during the year.
| | e) | Notes receivable from participants |
Notes receivable from participants are recorded upon distribution.
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has determined and informed the Company by a letter dated January 31, 2011, that the Plan and related trust were designed in accordance with the applicable regulations of the IRC. Subsequent to this issuance of the determination letter, the Plan was amended. However, the Company and Plan management believe that the Plan is currently designed and operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC, and the Plan and related trust continue to be tax-exempt. Therefore, no provision for income taxes has been included in the Plan’s financial statements.
The Plan administrator has analyzed the tax positions taken by the Plan, and has concluded that as of December 31, 2012, there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure in the financial statements. The Plan is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress. The Plan administrator believes it is no longer subject to income tax examinations for years prior to 2009.
Although the Company has not expressed any intent to terminate the Plan, it retains the right under the Plan to terminate it subject to the provisions of ERISA. The Plan provides that, upon termination, the net assets should be allocated among the Plan’s participants and beneficiaries in accordance with the provisions of the Plan.

| | c) | Changes in fair value levels |
The availability of observable market data is monitored to assess the appropriate classification of financial instruments within the fair value hierarchy. Changes in economic conditions or model-based valuation techniques may require transfer of financial instruments from one fair value level to another. In such instances, the transfer is reported at the beginning of the reporting period.
We evaluated the significance of transfers between levels based upon the nature of the financial instrument and size of the transfer relative to total net assets available for plan benefits. For the year ended December 31, 2012, there were no significant transfers in or out of levels 1, 2, or 3.
| | d) | Net realized and unrealized appreciation in fair value of investments |
During 2012, the Plan’s investments (including gains and losses on investments bought and sold, as well as held during the year) appreciated in value as follows:
| | | | |
| | | 2012 | |
Agrium Inc. common stock | | | 7,534,104 | |

| | | | |
| | | 15,394,085 | |
| | | | |
The classification of investment earnings reported above and in the statement of changes in net assets may differ from the classification of earnings on Form 5500 due to different reporting requirements on Form 5500.

| 6. | RELATED PARTY AND PARTY-IN-INTEREST TRANSACTIONS |
Certain Plan investments are shares of mutual funds and common trust funds managed by the Trustee, as well as common stock of Agrium Inc. Related transactions qualify as exempt party-in-interest transactions. These investments are disclosed in the supplemental schedule of assets held. Fees paid by the Plan for investment management services were included as a reduction of the return earned on each fund. Fees paid by the Plan for recordkeeping services totaled $38,121 for the year ended December 31, 2012.
| 7. | RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
The Plan invests in various investment securities. Investments in general are exposed to various risks, such as significant world events, interest rate, credit and overall market volatility risk. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investments, it is reasonably possible that changes in the value of investments will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for plan benefits.
The Plan’s management has evaluated subsequent events through June 21, 2013, the date the financial statements were available to be issued, to ensure that the financial statements include appropriate disclosure or recognition of events that occurred subsequent to December 31, 2012.
