To meet the demand for crop protection products that deliver greater effectiveness and lower environmental impact, agrochemical producers are challenged with developing differentiated solutions that satisfy the needs of an evolving market while addressing regulatory testing and documentation requirements.  

 Waters innovative analytical technologies - such as UPLC, UPC², Mass Spectrometry, LC Columns & Sample Preparation, and Data Management Software - provide unique scientific and operational benefits at key steps along the agrochemical development workflow. These solutions enable analyses of pesticides, insecticides, herbicides and fungicides that generate more information, are completed more rapidly and reduce overall costs. Application areas include:

• Synthetic Chemistry
• Purification
• Formulation
• Trace Detection
• Metabolite ID
