Sustainable agriculture through novel pesticides using an integrated approach.

A Horizon Europe project with 10 project partners. Its focus is on IPM focusing on potato & sugarbeet in Europe.
🌱 Excited to celebrate Amoeba's #Axpera—winner of the 2025 #BernardBlum #GoldAward at #ABIM2025!
Proud that SAGROPIA is implementing this innovative biocontrol solution in the field, advancing sustainable agriculture across Europe. #SAGROPIA #biocontrol #sustainableagriculture

🌱 Europe’s #Farm2Fork strategy aims to make food systems fairer, healthier, and greener. How do we reduce pesticide use without compromising crop yields or food safety?

At #SAGROPIA, we’re developing smart, low-risk, IPM-based solutions that work for farmers and the planet.
