Under the terms of the agreement, Rovensa Next will be supplying its Orange Oil to the EU-27 and Great Britain’s biocide markets, exclusively through Limaru.

Rovensa Next, a pioneering leader in biosolutions for agriculture, has announced a groundbreaking partnership with Limaru, a leading solutions provider to the global biocide industry. Under this agreement, both parties agreed to collaborate in developing, registering and marketing safe, practical and eco-conscious pest control solutions based on Orange Oil for the EU-27 and Great Britain biocide industry.

The partnership between Rovensa Next and Limaru exemplifies a synergistic alliance between two industry leaders in their respective fields. By combining Rovensa Next’s expertise in biosolutions for agriculture and Limaru’s proficiency in biocide technologies, this strategic bond is committed to driving innovation and sustainability within the biocide sector.

Rovensa Next’s Orange Oil is derived from Citrus sinensis peels through a unique cold-press process starting from freshly harvested oranges. This production process allows to safeguard high stability and efficacy of the active ingredient and in addition, Orange Oil is safe for users and the environment.

Originally developed by Oro Agri, a Rovensa Next founding member, the technology was refined through extensive research over the past two decades, resulting in various patented formulations and applications primarily catering the needs of the agricultural sector.

Rovensa Next’s Orange oil features unique properties that allow Limaru to develop and create effective biocidal solutions while ensuring environmental sustainability. Furthermore, the characteristics of orange oil make it safe in use both indoors and outdoors, being respectful with humans and domesticated animals.

This newly formed partnership between Rovensa Next and Limaru aligns with the growing demand for naturally sourced biosolutions, as an alternative tool in the biocide market, catering to the needs of eco-conscious consumers seeking safe, practical, efficient and sustainable solutions.

Limaru plans to incorporate Rovensa Next’s Orange Oil in product formulations for insect pest management that will initially target the more common pests such as mosquitoes, houseflies and crawling insects. However, beyond mere insect pest management solutions, other applications for Orange Oil within the biocide markets are currently being explored, a testament of Limaru’s focus and commitment to harnessing the full potential of Orange Oil.

Making ‘Shriram Farm Solutions’ India’s sole distributor of Nano-Yield technology

In a first-of-its kind agreement to license distribution of its liquid nano technology outside of the United States, Nano-Yield™ has signed a technology transfer agreement with Shriram Farm Solutions (A Unit of DCM Shriram Ltd.). Under the agreement, ‘Shriram’ will hold a technology transfer, supply and purchase agreement to use Nano-Yield’s nano liquid technology for its Indian customer base. 

Nano-Yield CEO and co-founder, Clark Bell, emphasised the importance of the agreement both for the company and for Indian agriculture. “We are happy to collaborate with Shriram Farm Solutions as we will transfer our liquid nano-technology to them which will further be used to enhance the efficiency of Shriram’s products. The products will be available for millions of Indian farmers and would further help improve their productivity.”

‘Shriram’ understands the importance of the future role of nanotechnology in India’s agricultural economy. “Nano technology plays a critical role in agriculture,” says Sanjay Chhabra, Executive Director & Business Head at Shriram Farm Solutions.

He added “As we at ‘Shriram’ will have access to the Nano technology it will help effectively tackle the issue of Nutrition Use Efficiency (NUE) and contribute to enhancing various factors that aid crops in combating the adverse effects of climate-induced abiotic stress. This will pave the way for a shift towards sustainable agriculture, as nanotechnology significantly enhances the effectiveness of plant nutrition and liquid applications for crop protection, improving overall efficiency.”

“Our collaboration gives us the opportunity to bring the critical nano-technology to a vast array of agri-inputs, eventually helping in broad-basing nano-tech products for Indian farmers,” says Chhabra.

With the initial license of its technology, Nano-Yield expects to help ‘Shriram’ initially focus on two main crops for the Indian farmers; rice and wheat, which are the country’s major field crops. There is also an expectation that the product will quickly be used to enhance and improve growing and harvesting of table grapes and bananas too. Other tropical fruits and vegetables will also see improved results.

“Before launch, the products will go through extensive trials in the Indian agro-climatic conditions,” says Chhabra. “Post trial, we will jointly develop products for the Indian market. Our goal is to work with Nano-Yield to come out with truly differentiated products which will address unique challenges of Indian growers, which in turn will improve farmer income.”

“This is a landmark agreement for us to work with such a large manufacturing presence,” says Bell. “‘Shriram’ has a pan-India presence and major stake in the Indian agri-input market. At Nano-Yield we are working on several potential deals, hence collaborating with such a respected company as Shriram Farm Solutions will serve notice to companies and countries worldwide, that we are not just here ‘dipping our toes’ into these kinds of agreements.”

Marco Guirado, Nano-Yield Vice President of International Sales is extremely pleased with this new agreement, but also understands it is the first in many important steps to come. “Now we turn to implementation and that is going to be very important for both Nano-Yield and Shriram,” he says. “We know our technology works and we know the Indian farmers will benefit from the same. This multi-year agreement will provide positive results and prove more than advantageous for the country’s famers.”
