Results for tag: "Agrochemical Intermediates"

Agrochemical intermediates are substances crucial in the production of agrochemicals, which include pesticides, insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, and fertilizers. These intermediates undergo various chemical reactions during the manufacturing process to form active ingredients essential for combating pests, diseases, and nutrient deficiencies in agriculture. The range of intermediates is broad and typically consists of amines, aldehydes, acid chlorides, and various other chemical compounds. The market for agrochemical intermediates is integrated with the broader agrochemical industry as suppliers provide these essential components to agrochemical manufacturers who formulate the final products used in agriculture. Companies operating in the agrochemicals market cater to the nuanced demands of modern agriculture, requiring precise chemical formulations to ensure efficacy and environmental safety. Fertilizers, as a segment of this market, benefit from intermediates in the production of compounds that provide essential nutrients to crops, enhancing their growth and yield. The evolving agricultural practices necessitate continual innovation in the composition and application techniques of both agrochemicals and fertilizers, in turn driving the development of sophisticated intermediates. Some established companies specializing in the production and supply of agrochemical intermediates include BASF SE, Evonik Industries AG, Clariant AG, Syngenta AG, and DowDuPont Inc. These companies hold a strong position in the market, with extensive portfolios of intermediates catering to the diversified needs of the agriculture sector. Show Less Read more
