    Prior to this, the two companies had successfully commercialized the product in Chile.
     
    Years of field trialson Botristop ® have proved that it is very effective and stable in preventing and controlling Botrytis cinerea, and is especially suitable for traditional growers of blueberries, vines and vegetables.
     
    This innovative product is the Chilean native plant Quillaja sapoAn extract of naria Molina.
    Its unique mode of action provides growers with an effective resistance management tool to ensure that growers export the highest quality fresh agricultural products to the world, while complying with the world's most stringent maximum residue limit standards.
     
    BSI CEO Gaston Salinas said: “BSI has innovated a unique method of growing this plant and extracting key ingredients in vitro while the tree is growing, and has applied for a patent.
    This means that we don’t have to protect an acre of grapes.
    And cut down an acre of trees.
    We plant seedlings in the experimental facility and extract the required amount of ingredients.
    There is no need to cut down a tree for this.
    In addition, our products will not leave any chemical residues.
    This is the real Sustainability.
    "
     
      In 2019, Syngenta launched BotriStop in Chile.
    In 2020, Chile approved new uses of the product, such as the treatment of acid rot.
    It is estimated that this product is currently used in more than 25,000 hectares of land in Chile.
     
      Juan Melendez, Syngenta's North American Biocide Product Portfolio Manager, said: "The above agreement is a perfect combination of innovation and performance, which will meet the demand for fresh food production in Peru and Mexico and many other countries in the future.
    "
     
      Since 2013, Syngenta has been committed to its "Green Growth Plan", striving to "use fewer resources to increase the productivity and profits of farmers around the world, while protecting nature and improving the lives of people in rural communities.
    " During the period 2020-2025, Syngenta’s "Green Growth Plan" will invest US$2 billion in sustainable agricultural breakthroughs, completing two new sustainable technological breakthroughs every year, striving to minimize residues in crops and the environment.
     
      Diego Ibanez, BSI Regional Manager, said: "Today, most of our business is in Chile, but soon we will work with Syngenta to promote our first biocide in Peru, Mexico and other markets, and launch more BSIs.
    Innovative new products of plant extracts serve sustainable agriculture.
