As the global agrochemical industry undergoes accelerated restructuring, stricter compliance standards and intelligent technological iteration have emerged as the core development trends of the sector.The interdisciplinary integration of AI, biotechnology and traditional formulation science is reshaping the R&D paradigm, making systematic formulation innovation, scenario adaptation and global compliance capabilities the core competitiveness of enterprises. Currently, the industry is plagued by disconnection between R&D innovation and field application, insufficient adaptation of generic technologies to refined market demands, and lagging industrialization of green formulations, which constrain the high-quality development and global layout of the industry. To break down technology transformation barriers, iterate the formulation innovation paradigm, and empower the green and intelligent industrial upgrading, AgroPages will host the 7th Ag Formulation & Application Technology Congress (FAT2026) in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, China from October 29 to 30, 2026.
Adhering to the core philosophy of "Global Vision, Local Innovation," the congress focuses on the core segments spanning the entire industry chain—formulation R&D innovation, adjuvant technology iteration, complex formulation breakthroughs, biological formulation commercialization, and process engineering upgrades—precisely dissecting the core pain points withineach segment and delivering actionable industry solutions to drive the sector's leapfrog upgrading.
As a flagship event in the global agrochemical formulation sector, the FAT congress consistently captures the pulse of industrial transformation with keen insight, and addresses the most urgent demands of enterprises through practical, targeted and implementable technical topics. With six sessions of accumulation, the congress has attracted participation from over 750 enterprises and institutions across more than 60 countries and regions worldwide. It continues to build a full-chain intellectual support network and industrial cooperation bridge to facilitate the transformation of agrochemical formulation technological innovation into field application.
