EAA-Innovations 2018

Innovation Meeting for agchem adjuvant and formulation specialists.

The focus of EAA-Innovations 2018 was on new developments/trends in the technology and science of adjuvants and formulations for agrochemicals and biopesticides. Experienced scientists from the top 5 agchem companies (Syngenta, Bayer, BASF, Dow and Monsanto) and from the University of Amsterdam and Ghent University shared their insights with the audience. AkzoNobel and SURfaPLUS informed on the relevance of spray drop deposit make up. In addition companies and academia showed their products and research results at the Adjuvant Mini Market.

EAA-Innovations 2018 was the follow-up on the two successful SURfaPLUS Adjuvants symposia, in Amsterdam (2011 and 2015). EAA-Innovations 2018 has been organised by SURfaPLUS. Chairman of the day was Han Rieffe from Croda.
