Clarification request(s) and response
María Claudia Filgueira: 1:42pm Apr 4, 2008: Completo el comentario que hice en la respuesta de rcolin. Lo que sí es correcto es "instalaciones agroquímicas" (de la misma manera que se dice, por ejemplo, "instalaciones petroquímicas").

instalaciones de agroquímicos
Explanation:
ag chemicals are now very often called agroquímicos. The word agriquímicos does exist but its use is somewhat more limited if one looks at the number of hits in an Internet search.
As to the sites, looking at the adjacent words, they seem to be plants, warehouses and storage facilities, hence a somewhat general word.

Explanation:
Agrochemicals require emergency procedures due to the danger involved in their usage. Ag Chemical would be better understood as Agrochemicals unless it were the proper name of a company.

Example sentence(s):
  • El gobierno nacional debe tener un plan de emergencia para situaciones de riesgo en el uso de Agroquímicos en el campo.
