About agrochemical product manufacturing services

cpc code 88424 covers the manufacturing services for agrochemical products, which are essential inputs for the agricultural industry. This industry plays a crucial role in supporting global food production by providing farmers with a range of chemical-based products, such as pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers, that help improve crop yields and protect against pests and diseases. As a key component of the broader agricultural supply chain, the agrochemical product manufacturing industry is a vital contributor to the overall economy.

Production process

The main production techniques used in the agrochemical product manufacturing industry involve the chemical synthesis of active ingredients, formulation, and packaging. Manufacturers typically start with raw materials and use various chemical processes, such as mixing, reaction, and purification, to create the desired active compounds. These active ingredients are then combined with other substances, such as solvents and adjuvants, to formulate the final agrochemical products. The finished products are then packaged in appropriate containers, such as bottles, cans, or bags, for distribution and sale.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the agrochemical product manufacturing industry include a range of raw materials, such as 24211 Petrochemicals, 20119 Other basic organic chemical manufacturing, and 20121 Fertilizer manufacturing. Manufacturers also rely on specialized equipment and machinery, such as chemical reactors, mixing tanks, and packaging lines, as well as skilled labor, including chemists, process engineers, and production workers.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the agrochemical product manufacturing industry are a wide variety of pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, and fertilizers. These products are then consumed by 11 Crop and animal production, hunting and related service activities, 46211 Wholesale of grain, unmanufactured tobacco, seeds and animal feeds, and 46752 Wholesale of agricultural machinery, equipment and supplies, among other industries, to support agricultural production and food security.
