From supporting the region’s smallholder farmers and seafood producers, to scaling novel foods and tackling energy efficiency in CEA, the summit addressed challenges in meeting the demand for nutritious and affordable foods while reducing carbon throughout the supply chain.
EcoPhage develops and commercializes bacteriophages-based bactericides to control bacterial diseases in agriculture across crops and regions, and aiming to enter the Asian markets
“Asian market are gradually open to integrate innovative solutions into their existing spraying programs”, said Guy Elitzur, EcoPhage’s CEO, “with more and more innovation developed in these markets and the growing farmers’ acceptance to biologicals and natural solution, these are definitely becoming an important agriculture region as time goes”.
About EcoPhage
Ecophage pioneers the development and commercialization of bacteriophages-based bactericides with minimal environmental impact and maximum efficacy, addressing a crucial issue in global agriculture. Annually, an estimated 10% of the world’s food production is lost due to plant diseases, with bacterial infections being a significant contributor. Our innovative products harness the power of bacteriophages—viruses uniquely targeting bacteria—to prevent and cure plants, offering nontoxic solutions for bacterial diseases.
Our vision is clear – transformation of the global bactericides market in agriculture into more sustainable and safer to human, living and the environment.
We are doing that by setting up the mission of revolutionizing agriculture by increasing plant yield, reducing disease-related losses, and promoting sustainability. The foundation of our success lies in a proprietary technological platform co-developed with the prestigious Weizmann Institute of Science. Unlike conventional pesticides that often cause environmental harm and exhibit low efficacy, our bactericides represent a natural solution with minimal negative impact, high specificity, and superior effectiveness.
At Ecophage, we are not just combating plant diseases; we are transforming the future of agriculture, one innovative solution at a time.
