The BIOBESTicide project aims at demonstrating an innovative industrial process for effective and cost-efficient production of a biological-controlling agent (BCA)-biopesticide to counteract the effects of Grapevine Trunk Diseases (GTDs) on both vineyards and winery industry. The process starts from valorisation of sustainable biomasses (i.e., beet pulp and sugar molasses) and leverages on the properties of the oomycete Pythium oligandrum strain I-5180 to stimulate natural plant defenses.

Within the BIOBESTicide project exploitation framework, CiaoTech launched a survey dedicated to the biological pesticides market segment and acceptance. In this regard, we would be pleased to hear your general views about the main sectorial trends, as well as your opinion regarding the BIOBESTicide project’s objectives.

The questionnaire for the BIOBESTicide project can be retrieve at this link: https://forms.office.com/r/QEkZhHTNvG

Because of your value and knowledge in this field, we would highly appreciate if you can directly reply at the questionnaire or forward it your colleagues. We would like to thank you in advance for your time to answer my questions. which will not take longer than 15 minutes. 

What is the benefit for you and for your organisation?

• You will obtain in-depth insight into BIOBESTicide and its results so far;
• You will receive an overview and market report with the results obtained from this survey;
• We will offer you the opportunity to put you in contact with the BIOBESTicide consortium members, which might be potentially interesting business or collaboration partners for you in the future.

Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Alessandro Russo (a.russo@ciaotech.com). We would be more than happy to hear from you – and especially, to hear your expert opinion on the topic.
