Fyteko
Fyteko - Bio-based products that are applied to plants to activate their defence mechanism to respond better to abiotic stress as a result of climate change.
Applied as a seed treatment or foliar spray, Fyteko's bio-based stimulant product allows farmers to increase crop yields while using a 100% natural, non-toxic and environmentally friendly product.
The acceleration of climate change seriously compromises food production in countries and regions that are already highly food-insecure. Addressing the multiplication of prolonged extreme weather events such as heat and drought, Fyteko aims at reducing the use of chemicals in agriculture and increasing safety and value from fields. While unnatural solutions such as GMOs show their limits, water scarcity is preventing the use of irrigation at large scale farming. In response, Fyteko provides a biostimulant solution that triggers plants' natural response to abiotic stress, making agriculture more sustainable, productive and resilient.
