The distributor of agricultural products Viagro S.A., a company that from its headquarters in Almería provides services in the different production areas of Almería and the rest of Andalusia, Murcia, La Mancha and other Spanish regions, will be a Gold Sponsor at the 1st International Forum on MICROBIOMA Microorganisms.
VIAGRO SA was born in Almería in 1980 as a company specialized in fertigation nutrition and crop protection.
Starting in the year 2000, as a result of constant evolution and ability to listen to the needs of the field, the company invested in new divisions focused on providing a better service and helping innovation in the field:
- A laboratory for analysis of the wealth of raw materials and controls to guarantee the quality of the final product.
- An EOR department to carry out official field trials for product registration, as well as field effectiveness trials of products under development.
- Facilities to produce our own products and those of third parties focused on the health of organic crops.
Accreditation for the performance of Officially Recognized Trials
Recently, the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and the Environment has accredited the competence of Viagro, for carrying out the officially recognized efficacy trials (EOR), required by the European Union for the official registration of new phytosanitary products.
To do this, Viagro has ideal facilities to carry out tests for the registration of phytosanitary products, divided into R&D collaborating farms, where vegetables (tomato, pepper, cucumber, zucchini,...) and fruit trees (orange, olive grove) are grown, a laboratory , microbiological development team and qualified Technical Engineers.
The efficiency of Viagro's development lies in the specificity and experience of its researchers and the possibility of contrasting new technologies with qualified technicians.
Its product catalog includes Fertilization, foliar nutrition, ecological Viagro, pest control, and other products such as agrotextiles and agricultural inputs.
Currently, the line of work is based on "Epigen" technology, a cutting-edge strategy that includes crops and plantations and their state of health as a set of beneficial and pathogenic microbiologies that must maintain a balance so that diseases and diseases are not expressed. There is optimal production, researching and developing the tools to keep this "microbiome" healthy and productive.
