The 2007 Agrow Awards

Sparking competition between leading crop protection companies

Judges are now casting their final votes – shortlist to be announced soon.

The deadline for entries into the Agrow Awards has now passed. Our 13 remarkable judges are now meticulously reading and marking each entry, to ensure a credible shortlist and the most-deserving entrant wins on the night.
Without giving too much away at this stage, it’s fair to say that these awards have been taken very seriously, with entries from the crop protection and crop production industry's major players.

The awards ceremony, on the second evening of the XVI International Plant Protection Congress, will be the most important networking event in the industry’s calendar. Of course, the awards will be the highlight of the evening, but before the main event, you will have the opportunity to join hundreds of guests at the champagne reception. This will be the perfect opportunity to continue the day’s discussions as well as maintain and build your business relationships.

It’s not too late to get involved

There are some sponsorship opportunities still available.  Not only will these give you extensive promotion and branding prior to the awards, you will also enjoy the most high-level presence at the awards themselves.  

The awards are the perfect place for you to host your corporate hospitality, invite your key clients with one of the complimentary champagne reception and gala dinner tickets included in your package. If you have used up your allocation, you can take advantage of the exclusive discount available to sponsors for extra places; either way you can be assured that your clients will be impressed by your commitment and positioning as a key player in the crop protection and crop production world.

A commitment shown by our current sponsors JSC International, Plant Impact and SynTech Research…….

"JSC International is one of the leading independent regulatory affairs consultancies in Europe, and through our sponsorship of the Best New Crop Protection Product category at the inaugural Agrow Awards we are delighted to be involved in the recognition and reward of creativity and innovation in the crop protection industry."  Said Dr Mark Whittaker , Regulatory Affairs & Client Liaison at JSC

Paul French from SynTech Research, has this to say about the awards

"The Agrow Awards are an exciting new initiative in our Industry for identifying and recognizing excellence. SynTech Research is particularly pleased to sponsor the "Best R&D Pipeline" as the Industry faces up to another challenging period of change".

"A great deal of thought and planning has been put into these awards and it is our intention to honour and reward corporate and individual excellence and innovation throughout our industry." said Philip Jarvis, Publisher of Agrow World Crop Protection News and Agrow Magazine, "We are delighted with the number and quality of entries and are excited that so many companies and individuals took up the challenge and entered".

Whilst for some it may be all about winning an award, companies such as Plant Impact recognise the value in supporting the industry by sponsoring an award category.

"The Agrow Awards is an excellent initiative for recognising talent within our industry. Plant Impact is delighted to be part of the inaugural awards, an event much needed by the industry. As a young inventive company we are especially pleased to be able to sponsor the Lifetime Achievement Award".

The Agrow Awards will be co-hosted by the BCPC and will take place on the second day of the BCPC/IAPPS International Plant Protection Congress, one of the industry 's leading events. Dr Colin Ruscoe, Chairman of BCPE, the Congress Organisers, says "BCPC is extremely pleased to co-host the Agrow Awards, which is a new and exciting addition this year to the commercial attractions of the BCPC/IAPPS Congress and Exhibition. It is a unique opportunity for our commercial participants to further enhance their company profile and improve client contact, through sponsorship, attendance at the event and of course the possibility of recognition through winning an award!"
