Cultivating Progress: Evonik's Products for Smart and Sustainable Agriculture

The product portfolio of Evonik includes creative and innovative solutions for the Agriculture market. This allows us to continue developing and improving plant protection formulations for sustainable high yields in the farming industry. As your specialty chemicals partner in the agriculture industry, we offer products like active oxygens as a highly effective, environmentally friendly biocide, catalysts for hydrogenation, oxidation, isomerization or dehydrogenation, low-chloride liquid fertilizer for sensitive crops and silica for crop protection, seed treatment and plant growth. 

Evonik offers a suite of specialty chemical solutions designed to meet the complex demands of modern farming. Our expansive product portfolio is engineered to enhance plant protection, ensuring sustainable high yields and supporting the global imperative of food security.

Evonik's active oxygens, including peracetic acid and hydrogen peroxide, are pivotal in agricultural applications, providing eco-friendly biocidal properties. These compounds are integral for the disinfection of irrigation systems, ensuring optimal plant health by preventing the proliferation of harmful pathogens.

Our commitment to animal health is reflected in our hygiene solutions for livestock environments. By preventing disease through effective disinfection of water systems and housing facilities, we contribute to the overall well-being of poultry, swine, and dairy animals.

The aquaculture sector benefits from our hydrogen peroxide and peracetic acid solutions, which are essential for maintaining water quality and equipment hygiene. This not only fosters healthy fish and seafood but also aligns with the increasing demand for sustainable aquaculture practices.

Drip irrigation systems, a critical component of efficient water usage in agriculture, are safeguarded by our peroxides, which combat biofilm formation, ensuring longevity and functionality of irrigation infrastructure.

Post-harvest, our peracetic acid serves to disinfect and recycle washing water, extending the shelf life of fruits and vegetables, enhancing biosecurity, and contributing to healthier food production without leaving harmful residues.

Beyond biocides, Evonik's silica products play a multifaceted role in crop protection and plant growth. As flow additives and anti-caking agents, our silica ensures the stability and efficacy of agrochemical formulations, optimizing the delivery of active ingredients.

Our plant nutrition products, AgraLi and blueSulfate, derived from our amino acid production, provide essential nutrients for plant development. These innovative fertilizers contribute to sustainable agriculture with a low carbon footprint, addressing the need for efficient use of arable land.

Catalysts from Evonik support the production of agrichemicals, enabling highly selective processes that yield more with fewer resources, underscoring our commitment to eco-friendly cultivation and cost-efficient solutions.

Lastly, our DYNAVIS-formulated hydraulic fluids bring efficiency to agricultural machinery, delivering enhanced performance and fuel economy, crucial for the demanding conditions of farm operations.

As we look to the future, Evonik remains dedicated to advancing agricultural practices through chemical innovation, ensuring that our partners in the industry are equipped to meet the challenges of feeding a growing population while preserving our planet.
