New biological biofungicide in Mexico to strengthen Integrated Pest and Disease Management (IPM)
At Veganic, we continue strengthening our presence in Mexico with the incorporation of Bacilo-X® LC into our portfolio of biological biosolutions.
This expansion reinforces our Integrated Pest and Disease Management (IPM) approach, consolidating the Veganic Food Care concept, which integrates effective protection, productive sustainability, and alignment with international quality and food safety standards.
With this launch, we expand our technical and commercial support capabilities and are proud to offer Mexican growers a high-value biological biofungicide designed to enhance their competitiveness in an increasingly demanding market environment.
D747: The exclusive and patented strain behind Bacilo-X® LC
Bacilo-X® LC is formulated with Bacillus subtilis var. amyloliquefaciens strain D747, an exclusive and patented strain recognized for its rapid action, high viability, and excellent performance under stress conditions.
It is registered in Mexico under RSCO-FUNG-0395-X0118-064-98.85 and contains a guaranteed concentration of 2×10¹⁰ CFU, ensuring consistent field performance.
Its main differentiating factor is its quadruple mode of action, combining direct contact against pathogens, root colonization, production of bioactive metabolites, and induction of natural plant defenses.
This enables both preventive and curative activity within IPM programs.
How does Bacilo-X® LC work? Quadruple mode of action against fungi and root diseases
Direct antifungal action through lipopeptide production
Strain D747 produces iturins, fengycins, and surfactins—bioactive compounds that act against phytopathogenic fungi such as Phytophthora and Botrytis.
Root colonization and biological competition
D747 rapidly colonizes the root system, forms a protective biofilm, and competes for space and nutrients, reducing pathogen establishment.
Activation of natural defenses and induced resistance
Bacilo-X® LC stimulates the crop’s natural defense mechanisms, strengthening its response to future pathogen attacks.
Liquid formulation (SC) with high CFU concentration and rapid establishment
Bacilo-X® LC is presented in a liquid suspension concentrate (SC) formulation, ensuring active microorganisms ready to perform in the field.
Key advantages include:
• Maximum biological activity within the first 24 hours
• Foliar or irrigation application
• High stability and concentration
• Easy integration into IPM programs
The liquid formulation allows faster and more direct impact compared to solid formulations.
Biofungicide for Phytophthora, Botrytis, downy mildew and key diseases in Mexican crops
Bacilo-X® LC offers broad-spectrum control, focusing on root and foliar diseases such as:
• Phytophthora capsici
• Botrytis cinerea
• Downy mildew
• Powdery mildew
• Damping-off
• Alternaria
It is registered in strategic crops such as potato, solanaceous crops, berries, banana, avocado, lettuce, grapevine, and cucurbits, with flexible dose recommendations depending on the crop.
It is compatible with beneficial fauna and IPM strategies, positioning it as a key solution for organic agriculture and export-oriented production.
For growers looking to integrate an effective biological biofungicide into their Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs, Bacilo-X® LC D747 represents an innovative and technically robust alternative.
