Rallis India Limited, a leading player in the Indian Agri inputs industry and Bio-Gene Technology Limited (Bio-Gene), an Australian company developing the next generation of novel insecticides derived from nature, announce the successful completion of pilot-scale production of pre-commercial quantities of Flavocide.

Rallis has capacity to produce Flavocide in sufficient quantities for future supply to Bio-Gene’s commercial licensees.

Dr Gyanendra Shukla, Managing Director & CEO, Rallis India Limited, said, “With a long-standing history of agrochemicals manufacturing and strategic partnerships with global customers; Rallis is committed to supporting the development and commercialization of next-gen sustainable solutions for the Crop Protection and allied sectors.

“Our partnership with Bio-Gene for the successful process development and scale-up of their patented nature-identical Flavocide insecticide is testament to that commitment. While Rallis does not expect the business to be material at this stage, we look forward to continuing to work closely with Bio-Gene to enable the successful global commercialization of Flavocide-based solutions over the next few years.”
