Syngenta and Novozymes launch unique biofungicide in Europe and Latin America

May 3, 2020 |

In Denmark, Syngenta and Novozymes are entering the commercialization phase of Taegro, a microbial foliar fungicide with broad spectrum potential. The two companies originally joined forces in 2012 to develop and market the product, and have now received the first wave of product approvals in Belgium, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Greece, Honduras, Italy, Netherlands, Romania, Slovenia, Spain, and United Kingdom.

Several other approvals are expected across the EU and Latin America during the next 12 months, which will enable multiple product launches in 2020.

When fruit and vegetable growers use Taegro in the recommended crop management programs it protects against diseases such as powdery mildew and botrytis.

Due to its microbial origin, low application rates, and short re-entry and pre-harvest intervals, Taegro is a powerful tool that helps ensure compliance with food chain requirements and maximize marketable yields. The efforts behind the development and commercialization of Taegro demonstrate both companies’ commitment to sustainability.
