Hyderabad in India recently became the location for Koppert’s latest research facility, KoSSIL (Koppert Sustainable Solutions India Limited), a joint venture between Koppert Biological Systems India and the local Devanur family.

The joint venture will be developing innovative biological solutions for sustainable agriculture and horticulture with local R&D experts.
The new research facility will manufacture natural products such as microbials for pest and disease management and biostimulants for both local and international markets.

"I am looking forward to the development of more products of international standards and biological solutions to face the future challenges in agriculture and horticulture," said Koppert’s managing director Henri Oosthoek.

"India and South Asia are home for over 1.5bn people and over 300m upwardly mobile middle class consumers now aspire to have residue free food," added Dr Venkatesh Devanur. "Farmers want to restore soil health, so sustainable agricultural practices are being considered very favourably in this part of the world. Partnering with Koppert is partnering with nature!"

The potential for agribusiness in India as well as the Asia Pacific region is huge, he continued, noting that there is a need to cater for these markets through the innovative research potential of the KoSSIL joint venture.
