The Stockton Group, a leader in plant extract-based crop protection innovation, announced that its Timorex Gold biofungicide has received approval for coffee in Mexico. Timorex Gold, now registered in over 26 countries, is a plant extract based on the Melaleuca alternifolia with a unique multi-mode of action that controls fungal and bacterial diseases.

Mexico is one of the largest coffee producers in the world grown by small farmers in Veracruz, Chiapas and Oaxaca and their families rely on the crop for their economic survival. Timorex Gold natural fungicide brings the coffee growers an effective solution to various diseases, such as the Coffee Rust (Hemileia vastatrix) or Ojo de Gallo (Mycena citricolor), among others. Timorex Gold stimulates the growth of new shoots and leaves, induces the formation of new tissue, strengthens photosynthetic capacity, and reduces stress and chemical load. The product can be used a few days before harvest. It may be used in tank mixes, in program rotation and as a stand-alone product.

“For the last 3 years coffee growers in Central America using Timorex Gold have been reporting effective results using our product,” explained Ziv Tirosh, CEO of Stockton Group. “Timorex Gold will provide the Mexican coffee growers with a valuable tool for managing and controlling coffee disease during pre- or post-flowering period, without affecting the setting of the grain.”

Timorex Gold is already sold repetitively in different regions throughout Central America and coffee-producing countries, at different altitudes and different varieties of coffee. Timorex Gold is the Smart Way to Grow.
