CropLife India to Hold National Conference on Sale of Crop Protection Products on E-Commerce Platforms
07 January 2026, New Delhi: CropLife India is set to organise a National Conference on Crop Protection Products Sale on E-Commerce Platformson 21 January 2026 at India Habitat Centre, New Delhi, bringing together key stakeholders to deliberate on the future of agri-input sales in the digital marketplace.
The conference aims to address the rapidly expanding role of e-commerce in the distribution of crop protection products, while focusing on farmer safety, product quality, regulatory compliance, and trust in digital platforms. With online agri-input sales gaining traction across India, the event seeks to create a common understanding among stakeholders on balancing scalability with accountability.
According to the agenda, discussions will focus on critical issues such as ensuring product authenticity and traceability, preventing the sale of spurious or unapproved products, and strengthening mechanisms that safeguard farmers while enabling innovation and access. The conference will also deliberate on licensing norms, certification requirements, and regulatory frameworks governing the online sale of crop protection products.
A key highlight of the event will be multi-stakeholder deliberations involving representatives from e-commerce companies, government departments, policymakers, members of the Central Insecticides Board & Registration Committee (CIB & RC), farmer representatives, and the crop protection industry. These discussions are expected to examine existing regulatory challenges and explore practical pathways for compliance in an evolving digital ecosystem.
As digital platforms increasingly shape agricultural input markets, the conference is expected to play a significant role in aligning regulatory expectations with industry innovation, while keeping farmer interest and safety at the centre of the conversation.
