Sustaining the world's growing population despite climate change, natural resource limitations, and pest resistance is a daunting challenge. Agrochemicals—pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, biostimulants, and soil conditioners—are leading the world renaissance of agriculture. From precision spraying to bio-based innovation, agrochemicals today are intelligent, sustainable, and data-driven.
The agrochemicals sector is evolving rapidly because of:
Growing need for higher crop output with diminishing arable land
Increasing demand for less toxic and bio based products
More regulatory push and drive towards residue-free production
Growing in precision agriculture and drone-powered application technology
Climate-change-enabled pest migration and disease transmission
Certain problems, however, still stand:
R&D and regulatory clearances are expensive
New pesticide resistance in weeds and new pests
Raw material volatility and trade disturbances
Satisfying performance requirements and sustainability expectations
