Speciality Seed Production

  • Marigold Seeds

    Speciality marigold seed production supporting quality planting material for ornamental, commercial and agricultural use, including crop diversification and integrated pest management systems.

  • Sunflower Seeds

    Speciality sunflower seed production for oilseed cultivation and crop diversification, depending on local climate, soil, market demand and cultivation practices.

  • Ocimum Seeds

    Seed production for Ocimum species such as basil and holy basil, supporting aromatic, medicinal and essential-oil crop cultivation.

Traps & Lures

  • White Grub Lure

    Lures that support monitoring and management of white grubs, soil-dwelling beetle larvae that damage crop roots. Effectiveness depends on the target pest, formulation, placement and field conditions.

  • Fruit Fly Lure

    Designed to attract targeted fruit fly species so farmers can monitor activity, spot periods of higher risk and make informed crop-protection decisions.

  • Lemon Fly Lure

    Supports monitoring of targeted fly pests on citrus and other susceptible crops. Species-specific identification matters because different flies respond to different attractants.

Organic & Biological Crop Protection

  • Mealybug Management

    Integrated management of sap-feeding mealybugs through scouting, conservation of beneficial insects and suitable biological or registered products.

  • Thrips Management

    Monitoring and correct identification first, then cultural, biological and chemical measures where required, to protect crop quality and reduce unnecessary sprays.

  • Nematode Management

    Root-health focused management using crop rotation, clean planting material, soil health improvement and validated biological or registered products.

  • Wilt Management

    Accurate diagnosis of soil-borne wilt pathogens followed by disease-free planting material, drainage, sanitation and validated protection measures.

  • Bacterial Blight of Pomegranate Management

    Preventive orchard management of Xanthomonas-associated blight: healthy planting material, sanitation, careful irrigation and early detection.

  • Aphid Management

    Regular inspection, conservation of natural enemies such as ladybird beetles and lacewings, and treatment only when monitoring shows it is warranted.

  • Whitefly Management

    Field scouting, residue and weed management, beneficial insects and monitoring tools, with attention to resistance management.

  • Downy Mildew Management

    Crop monitoring, air circulation, irrigation that limits leaf wetness, resistant varieties where available and timely preventive measures.

Product efficacy, crop suitability, safety and regulatory compliance must be established for each product before commercial recommendations. Use only approved products, according to the label and local recommendations.
