Haifa Group is proud to announce its membership in the European Biostimulants Industry Council (EBIC), reinforcing its commitment to advanced, sustainable plant nutrition. This step reflects the growing recognition of biostimulants as an essential component in modern agriculture, supporting resilient crop production and long-term food security.
About EBIC: Leading the Biostimulants Industry
EBIC represents the plant biostimulants industry in Europe, bringing together around 70 companies active in the EU market. As a leading voice in the sector, EBIC promotes the integration of biostimulants into advanced food systems through education, advocacy, and collaboration with members, policymakers, and growers.
Aligning Visions for Resilient Food Systems
EBIC’s vision – sustainable agriculture driven by the global adoption of plant biostimulants – aligns closely with Haifa’s focus on nutrient use efficiency, environmental responsibility, and consistent crop performance. As agriculture faces increasing pressure from climate variability, soil degradation, and limited resources, biostimulants are gaining importance for enhancing plant resilience, improving nutrient uptake, and supporting stable yields.
A central goal shared by EBIC members is to increase awareness of the role of biostimulants in sustainable farming practices and efficient crop production. Expanding their adoption requires coordinated efforts in education and knowledge sharing across the value chain – from research and industry to advisors and growers – ensuring these tools become an integral part of modern agricultural practices. Haifa brings extensive global agronomy expertise and field-driven knowledge to support these shared efforts.
The Power of Synergy: Fertilizers and Biostimulants
Haifa emphasizes the synergy between fertilizers and biostimulants, as well as collaboration across the agricultural value chain. Fertilizers supply essential nutrients, while biostimulants enhance plant processes, enabling more efficient nutrient utilization and improved stress tolerance. Combined within a holistic nutrition strategy, they support higher efficiency, better crop performance, and more sustainable production.
Looking Ahead: Expanding Activity with EBIC
Joining EBIC highlights the value of industry-wide collaboration. Haifa looks forward to contributing its expertise to key areas such as regulatory development, innovation, and product advancement. Working together enables the industry to address regulatory challenges, accelerate the development of new solutions, and promote clear, science-based standards.
By joining forces within EBIC, Haifa reinforces its commitment to a more sustainable and productive agriculture – where innovation, collaboration, and synergy drive the future of global food production
This partnership reflects Haifa Group’s long-standing dedication to advancing next‑generation plant nutrition through scientific excellence and global cooperation.
