DEMEGEN

Almost every crop faces some fungal or bacterial problem. The effectiveness of Demegen’s technology in preventing crop diseases has been published by a number of independent researchers around the world. Success has been demonstrated against many important diseases, including Rhizoctonia, Phytophthora, and Erwinia. Currently, farmers spend $6 billion annually to treat these diseases with chemical sprays. Since the core patents and technology are established, Demegen is licensing this technolog... y and expects to receive future royalties as individual crops are commercialized. Developing a new variety of a crop requires technical expertise specific to that crop. Scientists from the United States Department of Agriculture, universities, and private companies are applying Demegen technologies to a variety of crops including: apples, banana, calla, cocoa, cotton, dogwood, eucalyptus, flowering cherry, grapes, papaya, peanuts, pears, potato, soybean, spruce, strawberry, sugarcane, turfgrass, and wheat.More
