The company

OpenNatur an agro biological solutions company.

Nowadays, the constant challenge of agriculture is cultivate respecting the environment. The market and the consumer demand, increasingly, products of known origin and with a low rate of waste. The evolution of demand calls and laws, and the problems related with the resistance to pesticides, set and establish the guidelines that must be achieved in a short term.

This is already possible with the help of different pest control techniques. One of them consists in using sex pheromones and synthesized attractants, which are applied with different specific traps strategically located in the crops. Depending on the amount of pheromone used and the number of traps, we get three types of applications: sampling, mass trapping, and mating disruption.

Many pests that can be treated using methods that respect the environment, among others:

Fruit trees:

Cydia pomonella , Cydia molesta , Anarsia lineatella , Zeuzera pyrina , Synanthedon myopaeformis , Ceratitis capitata ...

Orchards:

Gortyna xanthenes , Ostrinia nubialis , Helicoverpa armigera , Tuta absoluta , Rhynchophorus ferrugineus , Plussia Gamma , Phyllopertha horticola , Melolontha melolontha , Agrotis segetum , Agrotis lineatus , Spodoptera littoralis , Plutella xylostella , Spodoptera exigua , Plusia chalcites ...

Olive:

Euzophera pinguis , Dacus Oleae , Prays olea ...

Vineyard:

Lobesia botrana , Argyrotaenia pulchellana ...

Extensive crops:

Sesamia nonagrioide , Sitotroga cerealella

Industry:

Tineola biselliella , Plodia interpunctella

Forests:

Tomicus piniperda , Rhyacionia buoliana , Lymantria dispar , Lymantria monacha , Scolytus multistriatus , Scolytus scolytus , Gypsonoma aceriana , Dendrolimus pini , Tortrix viridiana , Zeuzera pirina , IPS acuminatus , IPS sexdentatus , IPS typographus , Paranthrene tabanoformis , Thaumetopoea pytocampa , Cossus cossus , Orthotomicus erosus , Hylurgus ligniperda ...

With the application of these methods farmers not only get to watch out for pests and keep them an eye, but also achieve their control and take the required actions to combat them. The ultimate goal is none other than achieve higher quality crops, with less waste and friendly environment, traits that could result in a select range of products in order to satisfy the increasingly stringent demands of the market.

And everything with a high productive efficiency.

OpenNatur and its Technical Services will advise you about the best and most efficient agro-biological solutions applicable to your crops to get the best results when using sex pheromones and attractants.
