Goëmar, the specialist in sustainable solutions for agriculture, now offers 2 protection products to organic farmers: Vacciplant Fruits & Vegetables and Vacciplant Row Crops.

Organic farming on the increase
Organic farming is developing at a strong pace and more particularly in Europe.
Consumers, concerned about the quality of the food in their plates, opt more and more for organic food.
In this context, Goëmar has developed 2 specialties registered as Natural Defence Stimulators (NDS) in several European countries and North America.
These two products made from Laminarin, and newly registered on Annex II at European level, are now approved for use in organic farming.

Vacciplant, a product that meets producersʼ concerns
Organic producers have a limited number of protection solutions today, which are sometimes not enough to ensure satisfying yield.
Vacciplant Fruits and Vegetables is registered in France, as an NDS on all diseases of strawberry, lettuce, pip fruits and in other European countries on many crops and diseases.
Vacciplant Row Crops is registered in France, as an NDS on all diseases of straw cereals.

Already used in conventional agriculture, European organic farmers will now have a technique allowing them to better manage parasite pressure in favor of yield and quality.
This use extension indicates further recognition of the safety of the product on the environment and the user, but also indicates protection efficiency that the farmers may benefit from.

Goëmar, based in France in Saint-­‐Malo, provides sustainable solutions from products mainly
composed of natural elements respectful of the environment, such as seaweed filtrates or
active ingredients for agriculture. Present in over 40 countries, Goëmar is a truly innovative company that invests every year over 10% of its turnover in research and development.
