Competitive Intelligence for the Agricultural Chemicals Industry

 

The global population is anticipated to be over 9 Billion by 2050. The demand for food production will require not only an increase in cultivated area but significant yield increases for our existing crops.

Historically, crop yield improvements have been gained through better agricultural techniques using insect and weed control chemicals and fertilizers. Today, most agricultural chemical companies are rapidly developing yield improvements utilizing the latest in biotechnology science to develop stress resistant plants with increased yield. Beyond food requirements, cotton fiber and biofuel feedstock demand will be increasing as well.
