Powering today's agricultural revolution for cleaner, safer food through effective biopesticides and innovative technologies for sustainable, highly productive farming and a better environment.
As a leader in innovative biological and low-chemical pest management solutions, AgraQuest is at the forefront of the new agriculture revolution and a shift in how food is grown. AgraQuest focuses on discovering, developing, manufacturing and marketing highly effective biopesticides and low-chem pest and disease control and yield enhancing products for sustainable agriculture, the home and garden, and food safety markets. Through its Agrochemical and BioInnovations Divisions, AgraQuest provides its customers and partners with tools to create value-enhancing solutions. AgraQuest has its own direct sales force in the NAFTA crop protection markets, and sells its products through a network of distributors and partners in other global regions as well as in several non-agriculture related markets.
Through its Agrochemical Division, AgraQuest is redefining the agrochemical industry with the introduction of effective, innovative and environmentally responsible pest and disease control products and services. AgraQuest is the premier supplier of proprietary, data-driven biological and low-chemical technology, and unlike many conventional pesticides which are made using petroleum-based or other synthetic chemicals, AgraQuest's products are produced from renewable, bio-based materials.
As part of the clean-tech revolution, AgraQuest's BioInnovations Division is developing cutting edge technologies for use in seed treatment, food safety, post-harvest disease control, animal health and hygiene, human nutrition, home and garden, structural pest control, and vector control. Additional applications for AgraQuest's technologies lie in areas as diverse as detergents, cosmetics and healthcare.
AgraQuest's current portfolio of agrochemical products has been developed to deliver performance, flexibility and value to growers. Recognized as both highly effective and safe to beneficials, workers, and the environment, AgraQuest's brands include SERENADE®, RHAPSODY®, SONATA®, and BALLAD® fungicides and BARITONE® and REQUIEM® insecticides.
AgraQuest operates its own world-class manufacturing facility for the production of biopesticides and biochemical metabolites located in Tlaxcala, Mexico, allowing the company to enforce strict quality control standards on each batch produced.
AgraQuest has been recognized as a global innovator in the biochemical and clean-tech industries, having received several environmental awards including the Presidential Green Chemistry Award from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for the discovery and commercialization of the biofungicide SERENADE, the Red Herring Top 100 Private Company Award for technological innovation, and the World Technology Award for the Environment.
