Syngenta Biologicals enhances portfolio with already renowned bioactivator MEGAFOL^®

A survey recently released by CropLife Brasil showed that the bioinputs market grew 15% in the 2023/2024 harvest compared to the previous one. 

The study also showed that, in the last three years, the segment grew at an average annual rate of 21%, four times higher than the global average. This reinforced the view that the Brazilian biologicals market is experiencing accelerated expansion, reflecting the openness of Brazilian farmers to the combined use of chemical and biological technologies, which aim at productivity and sustainability.

This growing interest in the use of biological products reinforced the assertiveness of the creation of Syngenta Biologicals, which was announced in April of this year to promote increasingly profitable, sustainable, and efficient agriculture.

Aware of farmers' demands for biological inputs capable of performing beneficial and necessary activities for plant development, Syngenta invested in solutions such as MEGAFOL^® - a bioactivator based on plant extracts and algae that stood out for its triple action: mitigating abiotic stresses, accelerating plant recovery and activating metabolism for better vegetative development. The solution is especially effective in adverse periods in which crops face situations such as water deficit, flooding, temperature fluctuations, cloudiness, salinity, and chemical stress (phytotoxicity).

MEGAFOL^® enhanced plant metabolism, enabling consistent results and improving productivity in large crops such as soybeans, corn, cotton, coffee, and others. Its composition, derived from 100% natural sources, favors plant absorption and activity and offers a sustainable approach to facing the increasingly frequent climate challenges in agriculture.

″The climate challenges faced by soybean and other crop producers not only reduce productivity but can also significantly impact the country’s economy. MEGAFOL^® emerged as a crucial tool in this scenario. By mitigating the damage caused by abiotic stresses, accelerating plant recovery, and activating their metabolism, the bioactivator not only protected the productive potential of crops but also promoted more efficient use of natural resources. It is a solution that combined productivity and sustainability, essential for sustainable agriculture in Brazil,″ highlighted Dáfila Fagotti, Biological Products Manager at Syngenta.
