Harvest: passion fruit cut open
Voices from the field
“These are plants that have had the Silabaal product applied to them. Look at the size of these fruits – just one month until harvest.”
Farmer at Finca Santa Ana, Mérida (Venezuela)
“The product has worked very well – we compared it to the row that hasn’t been treated, plants that haven’t had any flowering or fruit.”
Farmer at Finca Santa Ana, Mérida (Venezuela)
“They’re plants that look just as healthy, but the development has been much slower. So we can confirm that it’s working quite well.”

Nigeria: maize with Silabaal®
A farmer in Nigeria shows how he applies Silabaal® in his maize field.
“I just finished spraying the maize with fertilizer. I use a nozzle that concentrates on the plant and wets it very well. I mix it very well – even when it starts coming out like water, I shake it again and continue spraying. I’m making this short video so that next time, when I spray, you see the difference.”
Farmer in Nigeria, September 2026
