KNOWING THE LAND

With years of experience and farmer network, we know exactly where to find the target weed species needed for the trials.

WEED SEED COLLECTION

Of course, sometimes difficulties occur - this is why we keep and develop our weed seed collection.

Due to the lack of rainfall, we try to apply pre-emergent trials on irrigated fields in weather-critical areas.

HERBICIDE-RESISTANT WEEDS

Weed management nowadays is no longer just about suppression — it’s a race against evolution. As herbicide-resistant weeds rapidly conquer traditional chemistry, protecting crop yields requires a shift toward new active ingredients and proactive resistance management. And the list just gets longer:
• Johnson grass
• Common ragweed
• Barnyardgrass

NEW WEED SPECIES ON THE FIELD

Invasive alien plants have always posed a threat. As the experts on the field, we are in the first line to face the phenomenon. Some of the recent arrivals:
• Yellow nutsedge
• Sunflower broomrape
• Marshelder
• Windmill palm
• Sandbur

Andrea Rábai

Lead Fungicide Specialist

From lab assays to resilient fields: we bridge the gap between advanced phytopathology and real-world crop protection. Discover the science behind our answers to tomorrow's challenges.

We can not just belive our naked eyes. In pathology experiments, it is critical to properly identify the pathogen present.

ONE LEAF, SEVERAL PATHOGENS

A leaf rarely carries one disease at a time. Efficacy against a single pathogen tells only part of the story – what matters in the field is the whole spectrum.

LOCATION IS THE KEY

With constant monitoring we can provide our clients the appropriate site for the purpose of the trial.

We closely track new fungal threats and deliver trials powered by expertise and real-time insights.

ARTIFICIAL INOCULATION

If the target pest does not appear, we provide the success of the trial by inoculating the crop.
Our laboratory team can produce artificial inoculants to our own trials and for partners as well.

Iszak Péter

Lead PGR Specialist

In today's competitive market, farmers must pay attention not only to the fight against pests, but also to the quantity and quality of the yield.

FERTILIZERS AND BIOSTIMULANTS

To optimize production, it is vital to ensure peak growing conditions for crops, particularly regarding supple-mental nutrition.

ABIOTIC STRESS TREATMENT

Under adverse climatic conditions, crop management demands both preventative measures and health-enhancing treatments.

DATA BASED STUDIES

We measure all, that is measurable

Measuring NDVI allows us to objectively and non-destructively track crop vigor, biomass development, and early stress responses throughout the trial.

Utilizing a SPAD Chloropyll Meter provides real-time, precise data on chlorophyll content and nitrogen status, directly reflecting the physiological impact of the treatments.

Assessing internal quality parameters — such as sugar, starch, or protein content — ensures that crop protection solutions do not compromise, and may even enhance, the final product's market value.

Exact yield measurement delivers the ultimate proof of efficacy, quantifying the economic benefit and return on invest-ment that the tested product offers to growers.

Evaluating tailored parameters based on specific client requests allows us to adapt our protocols to unique research goals, ensuring comprehensive data for targeted regulatory support.

WHAT WE DO BEST

In this field, our primary experience is on post-treatment plant sampling. The objective of these studies is to generate field specimens that will be sent to the analytical laboratory for analysis in order to support the registration of the plant protection product applied according to Good Laboratory Practice (GLP). We apply the test item to the target crop at the specified phenological stage and timing according to our partners' needs, followed by meticulous sample collection. To ensure highly relevant and robust results, we can conduct multiple trials within a single study across various locations, maintained at an appropriate distance from one another.
