An agrochemical or agrichemical, a varied nomenclature for agricultural chemical is as the name suggests, a chemical substance used to aid in cultivation or its concerned activities. The range of products may vary from herbicides and insecticides to fungicides and nematicides. Other substances which also fall under it include hormones, antiseptics and other chemical growth enhancing or inhibiting agents.
A pesticide is in general any substance that kills or adversely affects the life cycle of organisms that are considered to have an adverse effect on crop cultivation. The potential list of target pests can include insects, plant pathogens, weeds, molluscs, birds, mammals, fish, nematodes and microbes that destroy property, cause nuisance, or spread disease, or are disease vectors. The management of such pests and the manufacture of chemicals used for the same purpose has turned out to be a multi-million-dollar industry.
Agrochemical and Pesticide Market Drivers:
