A natural offshoot of AgraQuest’s core crop protection business, professional pest control is an ideal industry for a number of AgraQuest’s technologies. Currently the BioInnovations Division is working to develop products for control of ornamental and turf pathogens, improving plant health, soil sterilization, building mold control, food processing facility fumigation, and insect/arachnid control.
- Opportunity: Foliar-applied insecticide (sucking pests) and acaracide for the ornamental market.

AgraQuest has two partners in this segment, BioWorks who introduced CEASE™, an anti-fungal, anti-bacterial product for the greenhouse market, and Sylvan, Inc. a leader in the mushroom industry, who brought the product JAZZ™ to market for control of green mold.
