Crystal Crop Protection founder steps back as son takes expanded leadership role
Nand Kishor Aggarwal a laissé à son fils Ankurles rênes de l'entreprise qu'il a fondée en 1994. Le groupe, qui a acquis début 2025 auprès de Bayer l'herbicide éthoxysulfuron utilisé pour le contrôle des mauvaises herbes dans le riz et les céréales, s'est imposé comme un acteur important de la protection des cultures, des semences et des équipements agricoles.
