Introducing NOCARIX: Our New Natural Biomolluscicide to Protect Rice Fields<\/strong><\/h2>

At Veganic, we\u2019re constantly working to bring ethical, effective, and sustainable solutions to the hands of farmers. Today, we\u2019re proud to introduce NOCARIX<\/strong>, our latest innovation in the fight against invasive pests.
Formulated from Camellia sp. seed extract<\/strong>, NOCARIX is a natural biomolluscicide<\/strong> rich in saponins and specifically developed to combat one of the most destructive pests in rice farming: the apple snail (Pomacea spp.)<\/strong>.<\/p>

This launch marks a new milestone in our commitment to conscious agriculture. NOCARIX has received exceptional authorization<\/strong> from the Spanish Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food<\/strong> for use in rice crops, following an urgent need to control this invasive species in a way that is both effective and environmentally safe.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Why the Apple Snail Is a Serious Threat<\/strong><\/h3>

The apple snail is an invasive species originally from South America that has become a major concern for rice farmers across Europe\u2014especially in regions like the Ebro Delta<\/strong> in Spain. For over a decade, its aggressive feeding behavior, high reproductive rate, and adaptability to wet conditions have caused severe damage to rice crops.<\/p>

In the early stages of rice cultivation, these snails feed on young seedlings, and if not controlled quickly, they can wipe out entire fields<\/strong>, putting farmers\u2019 livelihoods and food production at risk.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

A Natural Solution with a Powerful Mode of Action<\/strong><\/h3>

NOCARIX uses a natural active ingredient: saponins derived from Camellia seeds<\/strong>. These plant-based molecules act as surfactants, disrupting the apple snail\u2019s ability to breathe through its skin. By altering the permeability of its cellular membranes, saponins cause a physiological collapse that leads to the snail\u2019s death.<\/p>

Unlike synthetic chemicals, this mode of action is both targeted and environmentally friendly<\/strong>, offering a low-impact alternative<\/strong> to conventional molluscicides.
And because it works through a mechanical-physiological process<\/strong>, it also reduces the risk of resistance\u2014an increasingly important factor in pest management strategies.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Responsible Use Under Exceptional Authorization<\/strong><\/h3>

Due to the urgent need for alternatives to manage this pest without harming aquatic ecosystems, NOCARIX has been granted temporary authorization<\/strong> for use in rice fields under Article 53 of Regulation (EC) No 1107\/2009<\/strong>.
This exceptional use is limited to specific periods of the year and subject to regulatory conditions.<\/p>

We encourage growers to consult with their local Veganic technician or contact our team directly at info@veganic.bio<\/strong> to learn more about the recommended application windows<\/strong> and best practices<\/strong> for safe and effective use.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>

A Step Forward for Ethical and Vegan Agriculture<\/strong><\/h3>

NOCARIX is part of our PROTEGEA product line<\/strong>, which offers natural biocontrol solutions aligned with the principles of vegan<\/strong>, cruelty-free<\/strong>, and sustainable farming<\/strong>.<\/p>

\u201cNOCARIX is a natural response to a very real problem.<\/strong> We\u2019re proud to offer the rice sector an effective, environmentally respectful tool, developed under the highest standards of innovation and responsibility,\u201d
\u2014 Carlos Led\u00f3<\/strong>, CEO of Veganic.<\/p>

This launch not only reflects our scientific commitment\u2014it also reinforces our mission to protect both crops and ecosystems while honoring the work of farmers.<\/p>
