MustGrow's Key Programs and Catalysts:
Bananas / Fusarium wilt TR4: MustGrow has commenced testing of its biopesticide in Colombia to tackle the disease Fusarium wilt TR4, a devastating disease pathogen ravaging the $25 billion global banana industry. Currently, there are no effective treatments for infected banana plantations which can cause 100% yield loss. MustGrow's highly-anticipated initial data is expected Q4-2020.
Non-Selective Herbicide: MustGrow has filed key patents and announced proof-of-conceptdata related to a biological non-selective bioherbicide (weed killer), a timely development, as market-leading herbicides face high-profile legal and regulatory challenges. A series of application rate tests achieved herbicidal control after only 72 hours - killing the plants from the root up. Additional program advancements are expected Q4-2020.
Canola / Clubroot Disease: MustGrow has confirmed in soil and on plants an over 98% control of Clubroot spores in 24-hours. Clubroot is a rapidly-spreading disease pathogen destroying canola, one of Canada's more profitable crops. Once a field is infested, there are no economical control measures currently available, with some field infections leading to 100% crop loss.
The World is Ready for Biopesticides
Widely-used synthetic chemicals continue to be banned or deregistered globally. The U.S. EPA promotes and encourages the use of safer pesticides, requiring much less data to register a biopesticide. The European Commission is seeking to halve the use of chemical pesticides by 2030. Leading agriculture companies have recently established venture capital programs to fund, partner or acquire early-stage technologies focused on biopesticide & bioherbicide crop protection. Research firm Markets and Markets sees the global biopesticide market size doubling to US$8.5 billion by 2025.
