Seipasa receives IVACE support to develop the Fertibiopest project

Seipasa, a company specializing in the development, formulation, and manufacturing of bioinsecticide, biofungicide, bioherbicide, biostimulant, and nutritional treatments for agriculture, has received a €42,148.37 grant from the Valencian Institute for Business Competitiveness (IVACE) under the 2025 SME R&D Projects program (PIDI-CV).

This grant is co-funded by the European Union through the 2021–2027 ERDF Program of the Comunitat Valenciana.

The financial contribution is allocated to research project IMIDTA/2025/27, titled “Development of botanical biopesticide tools with dual action—fertilizing and crop protection—to combat thrips, Mediterranean fruit flies, and nutritional deficiencies in key crops (Fertibiopest).”

Objectives of the Fertibiopest project

The objective of this project is the research and development of formulations based on natural active substances (biopesticides) capable of providing dual functionality—crop protection and fertilization—by controlling pests and incorporating micronutrients directly into the formulation, enabling more sustainable and integrated crop management. Through this project, Seipasa reinforces its commitment to innovation, sustainable agriculture, and the optimization of natural resources to foster more efficient and environmentally friendly farming practices.
