Valagro, a global leader in the production and marketing of bio-stimulants and other speciality nutrients, has launched two new products, Opifol and YieldOn for the domestic market.
According to Luca Fornara, Country Manager of the Italy-headquartered company, these products improve the quality and productivity of row crops. The products were launched nationally at Hyderabad. Valagro uses Hyderabad as its base for Indian operations.
Addressing the media on the sidelines of the meeting held to discuss improving crop yield in row crops, Luca Fornara said, “India leads in the world in terms of acreage in rice cultivation, but its yield is 20 per cent below the world average.”
“Our forecast for these two new products for the year 2018 is to sell 25,000 litres of YeildOn and 20 tonnes of Opifol. After we consolidate our position in South, we will expand to other markets.” he said.
