B-COS
Precision fermentation for more resilient crops
B-COS develops biological crop protection solutions that activate plants’ natural defence mechanisms. The company leverages chitooligosaccharides (COS), naturally occurring molecules that help plants better protect themselves against diseases and environmental stress.
These molecules are produced using B-COS’s proprietary precision fermentation platform. Unlike traditional extraction methods, the platform enables precise control over the structure and composition of the molecules, resulting in products with consistent quality and predictable performance in the field.
Reliable biological crop protection for the agriculture of tomorrow
B-COS technology can be used against, among others, fungal diseases and nematodes, while also helping crops better withstand drought stress. In this way, the company supports farmers in maintaining productive and resilient crops at a time when the range of traditional crop protection products continues to shrink.
By combining biological crop protection with the reliability of industrial-scale production, B-COS offers a sustainable solution for the agriculture of tomorrow. The company addresses a key need within the sector: effective and predictable tools to protect crops and safeguard yields.
