Challenges Facing the Agrochemical Industry

Counterfeit crop protection products and seeds are a global crisis that threatens food security and farmer livelihoods.

Counterfeit Pesticides

Fake agrochemicals with incorrect active ingredients or dangerous contaminants are sold through unauthorized channels, destroying crops and poisoning soil.

Fake & Diluted Seeds

Counterfeit seeds with low germination rates cause crop failures that devastate smallholder farmers who cannot afford the loss.

Environmental Damage

Unregistered counterfeit chemicals leach into waterways and soil, causing long-term environmental contamination and biodiversity loss.

Health Risks to Farmers

Counterfeit products without proper safety data expose farmers and agricultural workers to toxic substances without adequate protection.

Regulatory Non-Compliance

Fake products bypass registration requirements, making it impossible for regulators to track what chemicals enter the food chain.

Revenue & Trust Loss

Manufacturers lose billions to counterfeiting while farmers lose trust in genuine products after negative experiences with fakes.

What Farmers Worry About

Farmers invest their livelihood in every planting season — they need certainty that their inputs are genuine.

Cannot verify if pesticides are genuine before applying to crops

Fear of total crop failure from fake seeds with poor germination rates

Health risks from handling counterfeit chemicals without proper safety data

No recourse when counterfeit products damage soil and contaminate water

Uncertainty about product expiration and proper storage of purchased inputs

Losing an entire season's income due to ineffective counterfeit products

A secure entry point to the EU Digital Product Passport

The European Union is introducing digital product passports (DPP) across a growing number of industries. Brands that sell in the EU will need to provide detailed product data — from materials and origin to sustainability metrics — accessible via a digital carrier on the product.

TAGBASE is not a DPP solution provider and does not make a product DPP compliant. A clone-resistant NFC tag (NXP NTAG 424 DNA) can prove with two taps that this physical item is genuine before its DPP data is shown. DPP content comes from specialized providers. TAGBASE is building partnerships with those providers in each industry.

Verification analytics

Turn every scan into Actionable insight

Every time someone verifies one of your products, TAGBASE captures valuable data points and makes them available to you — giving you full visibility into how, where, and when your products are being interacted with in the real world.

Device & Browser details
Know which phone model, operating system, and browser was used for each verification — useful for understanding your customer demographics.
Timestamp & frequency
See exactly when each product was scanned, how often, and detect unusual patterns like repeated verifications that may indicate suspicious activity.
Geolocation data
When the user shares their location, you get precise geolocation. Otherwise, we still provide country-level data — helping you spot grey market activity or regional demand.
Portal analytics & raw data export
View all statistics directly in the TAGBASE portal, or export the raw data to feed into your existing ERP systems and run your own custom analytics.
