PHC peptides arrive in MS with a focus on soybeans

For the first time in Mato Grosso do Sul, Plant Health Care (PHC) is presenting its technologies based on elicitor peptides during the BioSSoluções para o Agro event, which will take place between June 11 and 13 in Campo Grande. The company, which belongs to the global group PI Industries, is a reference in the development of innovative bioinputs for crop protection and biostimulation, with a focus on productivity and sustainability.

During the event, which brings together producers, technicians, consultants and researchers to discuss the use of biologicals in pest and disease management, PHC will highlight three disruptive solutions developed with PREtec technology: Teikko, HPlant and Saori. The products are formulated with elicitor peptides, natural proteins that activate plant defenses and are part of the so-called fourth generation of microbiologicals.

Teikko is a biochemical nematicide used in seed treatment, with high efficiency in controlling phytopathogenic nematodes, even in adverse weather conditions. HPlant acts as a bioactivator, promoting greater root growth and plant resilience against climate and soil stresses. Finally, Saori is a biochemical fungicide indicated for seed treatment, which contributes to the control of foliar diseases in soybeans from emergence, in addition to improving the efficiency of fungicides applied in the vegetative phase.

According to PHC, the products have proven to be compatible with conventional management, offering farmers a more sustainable and efficient alternative, with average productivity gains of between 4% and 6% in soybean crops.

With a presence in Brazil since 2015, the company reinforces its commitment to regenerative agriculture, through technologies that combine innovation, environmental protection and economic viability for rural producers.
