OverviewTo make our world more sustainable, we need ways of growing that are both safe and healthy. We believe the answers to these agricultural challenges lie in nature itself. So we partner with nature. And help our planet to find its balance. Using natural enemies to combat pests, bumblebees for pollination, microbials, and biostimulants that support, protect, and strengthen crops. Improving plant health both above and underground.We were founded in 1967 by Jan Koppert, a Dutch grower with a clear vision; the world needed an alternative for chemical pesticides. He was the first to find a natural solution to combat the pest in his crop. Setting in motion a major transformation towards sustainable agriculture.For over 50 years, we have been pushing agricultural innovation, and these efforts have impact. Growers and farmers worldwide use our products and knowledge to restore the natural balance in their crops. Improving crop health, resilience, and yield.Together we are meeting the highest food safety demands on our way to our ultimate goal: 100% sustainable agriculture.A clear goal we can’t complete on our own. That’s why we team up with growers, partners, universities, research stations, and governmental bodies worldwide. Together we contribute to the better health of people and the planet. So let’s continue to move forward and Partner with Nature.Websitehttps://www.koppert.co.uk/Phone+44 1440 704488IndustryFarmingCompany size11-50 employeesHeadquartersHaverhill, SuffolkFounded1967SpecialtiesBiological crop protection, Natural pollination with bumblebees and flies, Resilient cultivation, Consultancy and training, Research and development, Application devices for distribution of biologicals, Biostimulants, Pollination, Integrated Pest Management, Pest control, and Disease control.
