    agrochemical

    Farmers shoulder a lot of responsibility. They manage their businesses in a complex, uncertain environment. And what they produce is weightier than widgets. We all rely on their success: to feed us, clothe us and keep farmland healthy for the next generation.
    It’s a long way from our chemistry labs to a farm, but the work that is done in those labs helps farmers to solve real problems, season after season. The basic question for farming professionals is: how can I maximize my yields, while ensuring that I produce in a sustainable way? Our crop protection products play an important role.
    A lot of factors can decimate yields: unfavourable weather, insects, imported weeds and resistance to an important fungicide. When we think about a new product or service, we try to keep all of this in mind. Talking with our field agronomists about day-to-day farm management challenges helps our scientists develop better products. How, for example, can FCAD technology originally developed for builders or diaper manufacturers help farmers perform even better?
    On this Internet site, we invite you – agriculture professionals and anyone else interested in the role of crop protection in farming – to discover how we see our contribution. We also invite you to explore all of the other ways that pesticides help us live better lives: in urban pest control, in the fight against malaria and other insect-borne diseases, in forestland management…
