🍊Protecting fruit quality late in the season is just as important as early-season management.

Late-season pest pressure can still impact pack-outs, export readiness, and overall crop value, making pre-harvest management a key part of the programme.

supports growers with:
• Flexibility for late-stage application
• Compatibility with residue-conscious programmes
• Effective False Codling Moth control

A strong finish to the season starts with consistent protection right through to harvest.

🐝 𝗦𝗺𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝘀. 𝗠𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁.

This World Bee Day, we celebrate the role bees play in sustaining our crops, ecosystems, and future food security.

Because when bees thrive, agriculture thrives.

The best agricultural solutions are not just developed in labs. They are proven in the field.

Spending time with growers and distributors allows us to understand real challenges better and refine how our products are used in practice.

Because innovation should always be grounded in reality.

🐝A successful harvest is shaped early in the season, starting with effective pollination. Even in orchards with strong bee activity, pollination efficiency can vary due to weather conditions, flowering synchronisation, and orchard dynamics.

Improving pollination outcomes can positively influence:
• Fruit set
• Size uniformity
• Yield potential

Rather than replacing natural processes, the goal is to support and enhance what is already happening in the orchard.

Apis Bloom is designed to work alongside natural bee activity, helping to support more effective pollination during this critical stage.

🐛Effective False Codling Moth control is not just about product choice. It is about how well each part of the programme works together.

Strong programmes are built on:
• The right product fit
• Well-timed applications
• A focus on long-term efficacy

🍊 supports this approach by:
• Offering a targeted mode of action
• Supporting resistance management strategies
• Providing flexibility for pre-harvest application

Because when everything works together, better results follow.

🌱Sustainability in agriculture is no longer optional. It is essential.

Growers are under growing pressure to reduce chemical residues while still protecting yield and profitability. With stricter export standards and fewer chemical options available, Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is becoming the foundation of modern pest control.

Biological control offers a powerful solution, using natural organisms to manage pests in a targeted way while protecting beneficial insects, soil health and biodiversity. But success comes from integration, not replacement. The real impact happens when biological and chemical tools are carefully combined and correctly timed.

At River Bioscience, we support growers with more than just biological products. We provide the knowledge and guidance to build effective, compatible IPM programmes that work in real field conditions.

Sustainable pest control is not the future. It is happening now.
