Over the past few years, the pesticide industry has faced significant challenges as certain substances have been restricted or banned due to safety concerns and environmental risks in major trading regions, making it more important than ever for the industry to find innovative ways to adapt and succeed. As policies and updates are constantly testing companies’ resilience, it is crucial for the industry to find a way out of this dilemma.


The pesticide session at CRAC 2023 will focus on China’s newly revised management measures for pesticide registration, as well as the U.S. EPA pesticide registration, and EU plant protection products and pesticide regulatory updates and changes.


In addition, the session will feature a half-day dedicated to market trends, with discussions on innovative compounds, industry development, and collaboration to help companies make informed decisions and stay ahead of the curve.
