Nature-inspired innovations that unlock your crops' full potential, because every growing day counts
Biologicals are revolutionising modern agriculture, offering innovative solutions to help farmers meet the challenges of today and tomorrow. These nature-inspired products work in harmony with traditional crop protection and nutrition inputs, providing more choices and flexibility to optimise resource use and reduce environmental impact.
Climate Stress Mitigation
Help crops withstand drought, heat, and other environmental stress
Resource Efficient
Improve uptake of nitrogen, phosphorus and trace elements
Complementary
Integrate with conventional inputs to maximise performance
Proven & Backed
Supported by trials, R&D and Syngenta's commitment to innovation
What are Biologicals?
Biologicals refer to products derived from or inspired by natural components such as bacteria, fungi, plant extracts and pheromones. These versatile solutions can be applied through foliar, soil or seed treatments, enhancing various aspects of crop production.
Our Biological Portfolio
Biocontrol
Based on naturally occurring materials for biotic stress management in controlling fungal and bacterial diseases, arthropod pests, nematodes and weeds.
Biostimulants
Substances or microorganisms applied to plants, seeds, roots and soil to enhance natural processes like soil health, tolerance to abiotic stress, crop yield and quality.
Nutrient Use Efficiency
For fixing and retaining Nitrogen, enhancing Phosphorus solubilisation and mineralisation, improving macro/micronutrient availability and uptake.
Speciality Nutrition
Micronutrients and water-soluble fertilisers to optimise nutrient availability and uptake, safeguarding complete and effective plant nutrition.
As you face evolving challenges like climate variability, changing regulations and shifting market demands, biologicals offer a sustainable path forward. By incorporating these innovative solutions now, you're not only optimising your current crop performance but also preparing your farm for long-term success. At Syngenta, we're dedicated to providing biological solutions that help you make the most of every growing day.
From 'Nice to Have' to 'Need to Have'
As the agricultural landscape evolves, biologicals are transitioning from optional additions to integral components of profitable crop management. At Syngenta, we're developing biological solutions that provide consistent returns on investment, rooted in core agronomic and scientific principles. Maximise your crops' potential and capture benefits that might otherwise be lost.
Integrating biologicals into your crop management strategy can help you:
- Maintain and enhance your yields and profitability
- Adapt to changing climate conditions
- Meet consumer demand for sustainably produced crops
- Improve your farm's resource efficiency
- Reduce reliance on conventional agronomic practices
Why biologicals are your ally in optimising growing days
Accelerate early growth
Biologicals can boost seedling vigour and root development, helping your crops establish quickly and strongly from the start.
Enhance nutrient uptake
By improving nutrient absorption and utilisation, biologicals help your crops make the most of available resources, promoting steady, efficient growth.
Strengthen stress resilience
Biostimulants can help your crops better withstand environmental stresses like drought or temperature fluctuations, minimising growth setbacks.
Optimise plant health
Biocontrols offer effective pest and disease management, keeping your crops healthier and more productive throughout the growing season.
Improve photosynthetic efficiency
Some biologicals can enhance your crops' ability to convert sunlight into energy, maximising growth potential each day.
Extend active growth periods
By supporting overall plant health and vigour, biologicals can help maintain productive growth for longer, potentially extending the effective growing season.
