Biological Control Agents

GMW carries out biological testing on new and existing products from early development to registration.

GMW has developed a methodology which allows research on BCAs before starting field tasks.

BCAs cover a wide range of potential products:

  • Micro-organisms
  • Macro-organisms
  • Semi-chemicals
  • Plant extracts

BCAs are mainly used in:

  • Organic farming where no chemical inputs are permitted
  • Integrated crop production programmes which reduce pesticide use, resulting in an improved conservation of the environment and better food quality (less pesticide residues)
  • Resistance management to replace sprayings with conventional pesticides.

We are specialized in the development of biopesticides.
