REGEV is the first product of its kind in the market. REGEV is a pre-mix hybrid solution that delivers effective and sustainable disease control in a very wide variety of high-value, row and even broad acre crops. This is a breakthrough formulation which creates a bridge to future biologics use, enabling growers in all sectors and geographies to reduce their ecological footprint and thrive economically to better meet the demand for sustainable food protection.
“STK is proud that REGEV has been selected by the prestigious Agrow Awards as a Finalist in Best New Crop Protection Product of the Year. REGEV is a revolutionary and easy-to-use approach to sustainable crop protection. REGEV is a hybrid pre-mix, which is used exactly the same way growers use their current chemical fungicides. No mixing. No Rotating. REGEV enables growers who have never used any biological product to try a biologic , experience an effective new tool for combating resistance, increase crop yields, sharply reduce chemical residues and make crops more competitive with consumers and regulators globally.”, said Arye Tenenbaum, CEO – STK bio-ag technologies.
TIMOREX GOLD, the world’s leading botanical – based biofungicide used in over 30 countries, was also named as an Agrow Award Finalist in the category of Best Marketing Campaign.

This campaign included field training throughout the country, inviting top growers to STK headquarters in Israel, exhibiting in Brazil’s big produce show, and close partnership with STK’s distributor in Brazil, BASF.
