Get ready to Harness the Storm — join industry leaders and innovators April 27–30, 2026 in Austin, TX for the CPDA Adjuvants, Inerts & Crop Protection Conference.

Over three high-impact days you’ll find the perfect mix of technical deep dives, commercial strategy, and regulatory briefings designed to help formulators, registrants, distributors, and ag-tech leaders turn disruption into opportunity.

A highlight this year is a Farmer Innovation Panel, focusing on maximizing farm potential. We will learn how they are making decisions. What are they doing to evolve? Do brands matter? How are they working with suppliers differently than in the past? Key drivers of mindset, reality of scale, business optimization and impact of location. What factors are allowing them to thrive, tools, techniques, solutions, technology innovation.

You’ll leave the conference with actionable intelligence on formulation and application, up-to-the-minute regulatory guidance, and a network of peers who are shaping the future of crop protection. Highlights include practical sessions on inerts and biologicals, a hard-hitting keynote about the macro forces reshaping U.S. agriculture, EPA and China strategy briefings, and plenty of social programs to reconnect and do business in a relaxed setting.
