Project-based fees for a crop input formulation chemist typically range from $5,000–$15,000 for a biostimulant or exempt plant-nutrition product with no pesticidal claims, and $20,000–$80,000+ for a full FIFRA-registerable pesticide formulation including the physical-chemical data package. Hourly consulting rates generally run $150–$350/hr depending on regulatory specialization.
