biological First.

BIOGARD® fundamental beliefs

Biological control products are: • first products to select in IPM • often preventive • need to be applied first • at the top for sustainability • at the top for managing resistance • at the top to avoid/reduce residue • at the top for the low risk • at the top for the low impact

BIOGARD® look to innovation first

BIOGARD® team priority is to be EXPERT in BIOCONTROL
