OUR PRODUCTS
Precision biologicals for African agriculture
AgriViro’s current portfolio comprises bacterial and viral biopesticides validated across a range of economically significant pests and crop categories — effective, selective, and formulated to biorational standards.
These are not broad-spectrum synthetics. They are precision biologicals developed for farmers who need efficacy without the residue, resistance pressure, and regulatory scrutiny that comes with conventional chemistry. Compatible with integrated pest management and export market requirements.
The pipeline does not stop here — the R&D Platform sets the foundation for the identification and validation of the next generation of microbial actives.
WHO WE ARE
The infrastructure behind Africa’s biologicals transition
AgriViro operates from a fully integrated campus in the Modderfontein Industrial Corridor, Johannesburg. The campus houses both an R&D Discovery Platform and an industrial Production Platform under one roof. This integrated campus — its infrastructure, equipment, and multidisciplinary scientific expertise — is the foundation for the development and production of a wide range of economically attractive, in-demand microbial biologicals for AgBio and agriculture.
Our biologicals portfolio, comprising bacterial and viral biopesticides validated across African agro-climatic zones, is in the final stages of regulatory approval. These are biorationals: products with defined modes of action, proven selectivity, and a minimal environmental footprint. Commercial market entry is imminent.
One platform. Three ways to partner.
Invest in the platform
A rare convergence of proven science, operational infrastructure, and first-mover positioning in Africa’s biologicals market. Regulatory approval is imminent. The production asset is built.
Access the African market
Enter the rapidly expanding African biologicals market through AgriViro’s regulatory expertise, validated field data, and production infrastructure — without building your own.
Distribute proven biologicals
Secure first-mover access to a proven, biorational-classified portfolio validated across African agro-climatic zones — before broader market availability.
