Sumitomo Chemical Agro & Life Solutions

Sumitomo Chemical Agro & Life Solutions is a major business sector of Sumitomo Chemical, dedicated to advancing sustainable agriculture and public health. The sector operates through two primary pillars: crop protection chemicals (insecticides, herbicides, fungicides) and biorationals (biological pesticides and plant growth regulators). It also encompasses environmental health solutions for vector control (e.g., malaria and dengue prevention), animal nutrition (methionine), and a pharmaceutical chemicals business providing API manufacturing and CDMO services for small molecules and oligonucleotides. In 2026, the company is consolidating its U.S. biorational operations into the Sumitomo Biorational Company LLC to serve as a global innovation hub.
