Suterra | Sustainable pest management for responsible agriculture

SMART SUSTAINABILITY means using science and technology in service of the planet's sustainability. It’s a unique way of approaching innovation that places at its center what our growers value most: the earth they cultivate every day.

Our SMART SUSTAINABILITY model is applied to each of the company’s products from R&D to manufacturing, and forms an essential part of Suterra’s values.

Every product we make contains innovative features that make it more efficient and sustainable: thermostats, crop mapping, compact and lightweight designs, formulas that combat conventional insecticide resistance, and more.

At Suterra we believe the smartest innovation is sustainable innovation.

Timely

As pioneers in R+D+I we are in time to reduce the use of insecticides, reduce our carbon footprint and protect biodiversity.

Nontoxic pheromones are delivered via different platforms including the Puffer^® aerosol emitter and CheckMate^® sprayable formulations and dispensers- all leave zero harmful residues on food and do not leach into soil or groundwater the way conventional pesticides do. Suterra’s proprietary pheromone technology protects agricultural crops and food storage facilities from harmful pests. Pheromones are naturally occurring compounds that allow us to target specific pest populations while protecting pollinators and beneficial insects. We can dramatically reduce the use of traditional insecticides and chemical agents.

Farmers might be focused on ROI and productivity of their acreage, but consumers are demanding more sustainable growing methods for the crops they eat. Consumers want to know that farmers care about the land, the bees, and the water that sustains us all. Using Suterra’s products provides growers with an effective pest management tool that is species-specific, does not harm beneficial insects like bees or ladybugs, leaves no residue on the fruit, and increases marketable fruit at harvest. By putting a greater focus on pest management methods that only affect target species, growing activities are more sustainable and help protect these important species.
