Crop Protection Industry

Fungicides, herbicides, insecticides are all crop protection chemicals. They help today’s food producers to protect against fungal diseases, weeds and insects that years ago could decimate a years harvest. In turn they help provide us with safe and affordable food.

Government regulations and the stringent testing requirements within assure the safety of our food and the environment in which crop protection chemicals are used.

We work with our customers to ensure that the use of crop protection chemicals is as safe as possible for humans (including farm workers and food handlers), animals and the environment.

Huntingdon Life Sciences helps to answer some very important questions, including what happens to any crop protection residues in our food, in the soil, in water; what are the effects on wildlife and how do different products react with each other?
