They discovered a way to make ammonia efficiently.

Explanation: Fritz Haber developed the laboratory method to fix nitrogen from air into ammonia (the Haber process), and Carl Bosch scaled it to industrial levels (the Haber–Bosch process). This made synthetic fertilizers and many explosives economically feasible, profoundly increasing food production worldwide. (Haber was also involved in chemical weapons research; Teflon and CFCs are unrelated to them.)
