Agrochemicals are the chemical compounds that keep crops healthy, yields high, and global food systems stable. Behind every herbicide, fertilizer, pesticide, or plant growth regulator lies a rich backbone of organic chemistry that governs how these molecules are made, how they behave in soil, and how they interact with biological pathways.
For graduate students, understanding this chemical story from synthesis to soil is indispensable. It sharpens critical thinking, informs sustainable decision-making, and bridges laboratory research with real-world agricultural impact.
