winemaking (and politics!)
This one ought to be easy enough to find, but my web searches have not produced anything I am suitably convinced by. It might just be me, but "phytosanitary" does not sound right for the description of a company/firm. "Plant health firm/company/organisation" did not give me enough hits for me to be convinced either. Could just be that I take a lot of convincing!
Anyone with suitable experience and knowledge out there to offer guidance?
« La méthode chimique que l’on envisageait il y a dix ans est condamnée à court terme pour des problèmes législatifs,de pollution. Il faudrait qu’elle soit prise à bras le corps par les politiques : ils ne le font pas car il y a des grosses firmes de produits phyto-sanitaires qui font une gros pressing auprès des décideurs. Si on regarde ce qui s’est passé, depuis 20 ans, il y a eu des produits qui ont été sur le marché : ce sont des nouvelles molécules chimiques qui ont été retirées ensuite du marché. On s’aperçoit qu’elles sont néfastes sous un angle ou un autre. »

plant disease control/management company
Found a whole bunch of sites that use "plant disease control," (4180) and "plant disease management" (1890) many of them titles, Website names, and also as part of company names.
4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer.
Comment: "Thanks Yolanda, I had been concentrating on the "health" aspect and had not thought about looking at it from a "disease free" point of view. As a result I found that there is such a thing as "plant pathology".
Thanks again,
Nikki"

plant health/phytosanitary company
I thought "phytosanitary" was translator-ese and Euro/FAO-speak, but I see there are plenty of e.g. US hits for "phytosanitary" on its own. I'm sure a major US or UK corporation would have a "plant health division" rather than a "phytosanitary division", though (and DEFRA has one too).
