[Central Research Laboratories]
For the Development of Agrochemicals and Establishment of High Safety Technology
Searching for the harmony between people and nature and aiming at the establishment of highly safe, environmentally-friendly technology, we continue our R&D to realize a better life that makes the best use of creativity using limited resources on the earth effectively.
Creation of Bio-active Substances for environmentally-friendly agrochemicals
The world population is growing rapidly; we need to increase food production to support this population. Agrochemicals provide a basis of stable food supply. We accept a challenge of creating safe and environmentally-friendly agrochemicals that are good for both farmers and consumers, with new ideas that satisfy the requirements of the times.
