Climate Smart Agriculture

Smart agricultureclimate adaptation

Climate Smart Agriculture is a development framework proposed by the FAO with 3 goals: sustaining productivity, helping agriculture adapt to climate change, and reducing emissions. CSA builds those 3 goals into every formula, formulation and package the factory makes for its partners.

From concept to practice in the factory

01

Sustainable productivity

High efficacy at sensible doses — farmers need fewer sprays and spend less for the same result.

  • Optimizing multi-active mixture formulas right from the R&D stage
  • Ultra-fine milling for SC formulations — small particles, good adhesion and even dispersion
  • Concentration testing of every batch before it leaves the factory
02

Climate adaptation

Helping crops withstand extreme weather: drought, salinity, heat and unseasonal rain.

  • Biological products and plant growth regulators that stimulate rooting and help crops recover after stress
  • Portfolio advice based on the partner's growing regions, crops and seasons
  • Developing product lines for reduced-chemical farming models
03

Lower environmental impact

Preference for formulations and packaging that are gentler on spray operators, soil and water sources.

  • Preference for water-based (SC, EW, SL) and granular (WG) formulations over solvent- and dust-heavy ones
  • Advice on right-sized packaging specifications that limit excess material
  • Factory processes comply with environmental regulations, with a dedicated storage warehouse area
New-generation formulations

Same active ingredient — a formulation that is better for users and the environment

EC — emulsifiable concentrateEW / ME / SCLess organic solvent, less odour, safer for spray operators
WP — wettable powderWG — water dispersible granuleNo dust when mixing, accurate dosing, dissolves easily
Coarse granuleUltra-fine milled SCEven dispersion, good leaf adhesion, less sedimentation and nozzle clogging
Single active ingredientMixtures & biologicalsMultiple modes of action, lower risk of resistance

Biological and naturally derived active ingredients & plant growth regulators

Plant-extract active ingredients (Matrine, Azadirachtin…), microorganisms (Bacillus, Trichoderma…), agricultural antibiotics of microbial origin and plant growth regulators — ready for toll manufacturing under your own brand.

Developing green product lines together with partners

Consumers of agricultural produce, importers and the VietGAP/GlobalGAP standards increasingly demand safer inputs. Brands that move ahead of this trend will keep their dealers and farmers for the long term.

Advice on green product lines
  • Every toll-manufactured product line comes with batch-level concentration test records
  • Biological / lower-toxicity options are proposed first when partners develop new lines
  • Transparent ingredients and concentrations on the label — exactly as registered
  • Confidentiality of partners' formulas and brand information
