Best Agrolife Ltd. Receives Patent for Novel Ternary Pesticide Formulation to Combat Major Paddy Pests and Diseases
Mumbai, 2nd September 2024: Best Agrolife Ltd., a leading tech based agrochemical manufacturer in India, has achieved a significant milestone with the patent approval for its novel ternary pesticide formulation. This ground-breaking innovation integrates Isoprothiolane, Pymetrozine, and Trifloxystrobin to deliver dual protection against the most harmful Blast and Blight diseases, as well as the Brown Planthopper (BPH) insects, in paddy and mango crops.
Rice, a staple food for the majority of Indians, is cultivated across diverse agro-climatic conditions and soil types, facing numerous biotic and abiotic constraints. India is the second-largest producer of rice globally, with a cultivation area exceeding 43 million hectares. The country's rice production, however, is often threatened by several factors, including Blast Disease, Sheath Blight, and Brown Planthopper (BPH).
Blast disease, the most destructive fungal disease impacting rice in India, results in severe yield losses. Similarly, sheath blight is an economically significant disease that can reduce yields by up to 50% in favorable conditions. Additionally, the Brown Planthopper (BPH) poses a major threat to rice production, causing substantial annual yield losses by sucking sap from rice plants and transmitting viral diseases.
Traditionally, farmers have relied on three separate pesticides to manage these devastating diseases and pests. Best Agrolife’s new ternary formulation offers a single, efficient solution that saves time, reduces costs, and promotes healthier crop growth, ultimately leading to higher profits. This innovation is a testament to the company's commitment to providing comprehensive crop solutions.
Best Agrolife has a robust portfolio of such cutting-edge patented products that have transformed pest management practices in agriculture. The company has also been granted a patent for another groundbreaking innovation: a binary fungicide formulation combining Trifloxystrobin and Valifenalate. While Best Agrolife holds several ternary patents, this marks its first-ever binary patent, further showcasing its dedication to advancing agricultural technologies.
With a focus on research and development, Best Agrolife is poised to introduce more innovative products that address the challenges faced by farmers, ensuring a brighter and more prosperous future for agriculture.
