In this episode of Sea Beyond Discover, Prashant Kharwadkar, Regional Commercial VP for APAC, shares insights into the rapidly evolving biostimulant landscape across the region. With climate pressures mounting - from extreme heat impacting rice yields in Japan and China to flooding in India and Australia - growers are urgently seeking sustainable, science-backed solutions.

Prashant explores how Acadian’s focus on abiotic stress management and soil health is helping meet these challenges head-on. He discusses the rising demand for biostimulants, driven by the need for improved nutrient efficiency and resilience against unpredictable weather. He also highlights how APH’s long-standing scientific research and R&D investment are supporting regenerative agriculture and government sustainability mandates across APAC.
