Biological Crop Protection Products

Plant Power Products develops and researches biological crop protection products for strong, healthy and future-proof cultivation that aligns with modern, sustainable and integrated agriculture in the Netherlands.

Our residue-free solutions support growers with plant resilience, moisture retention and a healthy root environment, as more and more chemical crop protection products gradually lose their European and Dutch authorisations.

our products

Hamerol

Hamerol is a plant strengthener based on chitosan hydrochloride that supports the crop’s natural resilience. It helps plants respond more effectively to diseases and attacks and fits within integrated crop protection strategies.

Hamerol: plant strengthener for a resilient crop

CultaCoat

CultaCoat is an environmentally friendly coating that helps reduce moisture loss in plants, roots, bulbs and tubers. The product is biodegradable, leaves no residue and protects plant material during storage, transport and transplanting.

CultaZym

CultaZym is an enzyme complex that accelerates the breakdown of old root and crop residues. This reduces the breeding ground for harmful organisms, improves the microbial balance and creates a cleaner and healthier root environment.

Discover our solutions for biological crop protection

Our products support different aspects of crop cultivation. They help strengthen natural plant resilience, reduce moisture loss and break down old root and crop residues in a controlled way to create a healthier root environment.

Plant Power Products combines product expertise, practical experience and research. This enables us to offer biological solutions suited to different crops, cultivation systems and challenges within sustainable and integrated crop protection.

What are biological crop protection products?

Biological crop protection products are solutions of natural origin that help protect crops against diseases, pests and unfavourable conditions. They support natural processes in plants, soils and root environments without chemical burden.

This form of crop protection fits within sustainable cultivation systems in which prevention, monitoring and targeted support are central. In this way, growers can build stronger crops and reduce their dependence on chemical crop protection products wherever possible.

What types of biological crop protection products are available?

There are various types of biological crop protection products. Which solution is most suitable depends on the crop, cultivation conditions and the specific problem that needs to be prevented, reduced or managed.

Microbial products: bacteria, fungi or viruses that help suppress harmful organisms.
Macro-organism products: natural enemies such as predatory insects and beneficial nematodes.
Plant strengtheners: products that activate natural defence processes in plants.
Protective coatings: applications that reduce evaporation and moisture loss.
Enzyme products: products that break down organic residues and support the root environment.

Make your crop more resilient to diseases and attacks

A resilient crop is better able to cope with pathogenic fungi, harmful nematodes and other biological stress factors. Plant strengtheners activate natural defence processes while also supporting root development, leaf greenness and beneficial organisms in the soil.

Biological crop protection is not a stand-alone solution, but part of a broader approach. By combining natural products with monitoring, soil management and targeted interventions, a stronger and more balanced cultivation system can be created. This is known as Integrated Crop Management (ICM).

Discover Hamerol

Support for root problems and disease susceptibility

Old root and crop residues can provide a breeding ground for pathogenic fungi, bacteria and other harmful organisms. Controlled breakdown helps create a cleaner root environment and gives new roots a better start.

Faster breakdown of old root and crop residues
Less dead organic material in soil or substrate
Improved microbial balance around the roots
A more aerated and biologically active root environment
More sustainable and efficient reuse of substrate

Protect plants against dehydration, heat and frost

Drought, heat, frost damage and transplanting cause abiotic stress. This can disrupt cell activity, root development and nutrient uptake, ultimately leading to loss of quality, delayed growth or reduced yields.

CultaCoat forms a thin protective film that helps reduce evaporation and dehydration. Hamerol also supports natural plant resilience, meaning both products can play a role within sustainable crop protection.

More than 30 years of experience in crop protection

The foundations of Plant Power Products were laid more than thirty years ago, following research into applications of chitin derived from shrimp shells. This led to the development of chitosan and ultimately the Hamerol plant strengthener.

Today, we combine product development, practical research and personal advice. In doing so, we help growers protect their crops more sustainably, increase natural resilience and further reduce the environmental impact of crop protection products.
