What growers
say

Four decades supporting agriculture show in the trust of those who choose us.

«I have used AGROMEN polysulfide for winter peach treatments for over fifteen years. It has never failed me against leaf curl and scale, and density is consistent batch after batch.»
Raúl Domínguez Fruit grower · Tupungato, Mendoza
«I recommend ICOA copper sulfate to the farms I advise. It dissolves very well for Bordeaux mixture and fungal control in vineyards is excellent. They also answer technical questions, which is appreciated.»
Marcela Funes Agronomist · San Rafael, Mendoza
«As distributors we need suppliers who deliver: ICOA ships on time, the product sells itself because customers reorder, and factory pricing leaves us margin. Working with them is straightforward.»
Jorge Salatino Agricultural distributor · San Juan
«We started using ANERTION formicide in the seed shed last season and it lasted the six months as promised. I wish I had known about it earlier; we lost a lot of bags to ants.»
Elena Bustos Family farm · Rivadavia, Mendoza
