The Latin American International Agrochemical Exhibition kicked off on the 2nd of August, with some 40 Chinese agrochemical companies participating in the show. The event was co-organized by the China Pesticide Industry Association and the China Compound Phosphate Fertilizer Industry Association and the Brazilian side.
