PILARNANO collaborates with Nankai University: Exploring new era of Nano-agrochemicals for a quality harvest

Date:10-31-2024

Nano-agrochemicals represent a significant new direction in future agricultural technology, offering extensive application prospects. 

As a research station for graduate students at multiple universities in China, Pilarquim actively signs strategic cooperation agreements with top institutions to attract high-level R&D and technical talent and ensure robust technical support for its new products.

On July 4, 2024, Pilarquim officially signed the agreement: ″Strategic Cooperation Agreement for Joint Development of Nano-agrochemicals″ and ″Nankai University Joint Training and Practice Base for Agricultural Graduate Students″ with the School of Chemistry at Nankai University. This collaboration marks a significant step forward in the field of Nano-agrochemical.

As a pioneer in technology innovation, Pilarquim views product innovation as the core driving force behind its development. It is committed to providing differentiated products and solutions for global agriculture through cutting-edge technology, achieving remarkable results in the field of Nano-agrochemical technology. In Brazil, Pilarquim's nano PILARTEP product has shown outstanding performance in soybean rust (Phakopsora Pachyrhizi) control trials. 

Compared to regular PILARTEP, PILARNANO technology significantly enhanced the efficacy of PILARTEP against soybean rust, effectively reducing its impact and increasing soybean yield. Additionally, nano PILARICH has excelled in managing soybean target spot (Corynespora cassiicola) and ″End-of-Cycle Diseases″ (DFC: Cercospora kikuchii, Septoria glycines, Corynespora cassiicola), reducing the amount of chemicals dosage while significantly boosting yields. 

In Latin America, Pilarquim continues to advance the research, registration, and promotion of PILARNANO technology products, expecting positive progress in the near future.

William Gao, the director of the PILARNANO Research Institute of Pilarquim, stated: "The collaboration with the College of Chemistry at Nankai University is an important global strategy for Pilarquim in the field of nanotechnology research and application. We are currently developing various nanoformulations, including SC, DF, OD, and CS. We will conduct in-depth research in collaboration with Nankai University, focusing on the characterization of these nanoformulations in terms of spraying coverage, absorption and transport efficiency, and agrochemical deposition. This research will provide essential scientific data support for reducing the dosage of Nano-agrochemicals and enhancing their effectiveness."

The PILARNANO series products boast strong competitiveness in the agrochemical formulation market. Unique preparation processes and formulas result in finer particle sizes that precisely target, significantly improving the targeting and absorption efficiency of active ingredients. 

Experimental data indicate that PILARNANO series products exhibit uniform distribution, higher absorption, transport efficiency, and longer effective durations of the chemicals throughout the various crop foliage. Benefiting from these features, the PILARNANO series aids in enhancing the utilization rate of agrochemical active ingredients while achieving the same control effects with reduced agrochemical dosage, helping growers lower input costs and increase yields.

In the global market, Pilarquim will continuously expand its agrochemical market share, particularly in the fields of microencapsulated agrochemicals and Nano-agrochemical formulations. Through close collaboration with global partners, Pilarquim strives to enhance technological capabilities, drive product innovation and technological breakthroughs, and improve agricultural production efficiency. Pilarquim is consistently committed to providing more valuable solutions for global agriculture and making significant contributions to the sustainable development of agriculture worldwide.
