Agriculture Market Segments

Through crop protection, we are able to manage plant diseases, weeds, and other pests that damage or prohibit the growth of agricultural crops and forestry. Types of agricultural crops include field crops (such as wheat and rice), fruits, and vegetables which are exposed to many factors. They can be damaged by insects, birds, rodents, and bacteria.

Volatilization, denitrification, nitrogen leaching and phosphate run off are four major concerns to Brenntag. We pride ourselves in supplying the most cutting edge technology in tackling these significant issues that customers, and ultimately the environment, face today.

Over the years, as plant nutritionals have evolved, we understand that it is not how much fertilizer is applied but the right fertilizer. The timing of when the plant receives its fertility, coupling this with fertilizer placement is key to our success in cutting edge products in the market today. Brenntag AG works continuously with our partners to ensure that they are producing and buying the very best ingredients for the success of their product lines.

The foundation for growing crops starts with healthy soil. Microbials contain favorable microbes which can be directly applied to a seed or sprayed on a plant, helping them to absorb essential nutrients.
