Abstract:
The global agricultural sector faces immense challenges in ensuring food security for a growing population while safeguarding environmental and human health. The discovery of new products and solutions for the sustainable crop protection of the future is an imperative necessity and a matter of great urgency. With the purpose to showcase the most recent innovations and developments in crop protection the 15th IUPAC International Congress of Crop Protection Chemistry was held in 2023. This Special Issue comprises 26 articles and provides information on the latest innovations in crop protection research that were presented at this congress or resulted from accompanying discussions. © 2025 Society of Chemical Industry.
