Results for tag: "Biofungicide"

Biofungicides are a type of agrochemical and fertilizer used to control fungal diseases in crops. They are derived from natural sources such as bacteria, fungi, and plant extracts, and are used to protect crops from fungal diseases. Biofungicides are generally considered to be safer than chemical fungicides, as they are less toxic and have fewer environmental impacts. They are also more specific in their action, targeting only the pathogen causing the disease, rather than a broad spectrum of fungi. Biofungicides are becoming increasingly popular as an alternative to chemical fungicides, due to their safety and efficacy. They are used in a variety of crops, including cereals, vegetables, fruits, and ornamentals. Some companies in the biofungicide market include BASF, Bayer, Syngenta, Marrone Bio Innovations, and Certis USA. Show Less Read more
