Conserving biodiversity
Harvesting high yields and protecting biodiversity – these are two key issues in progressive farming that focus on a sustainable tomorrow and food sovereignty for future generations. The responsible use of crop protection products plays an important part in this.
We want to support farmers in successfully meeting this challenge. In the process, we rely on contemporary solutions to combat pests in a natural way. For us, modern plant protection means working with nature instead of against it.
One effective way to do this is to use pherolit®, our active ingredients that make it far more difficult for pests to locate conspecifics that are ready to mate. Mating disruption is already a well-established method of pest control in orchards and vineyards. Thanks to our revolutionary application technology, it is now possible to confuse harmful organisms in arable farming as well, and continuously reduce pest populations.
pherolit®-d is an active ingredient we have developed that can make a significant contribution to stopping the rapid spread of the corn rootworm.
