What Agrocube does

Agrocube S.A. is an Argentine private biotechnology company headquartered in Buenos Aires that develops and commercializes polyphenol-based plant extracts for agricultural applications. Its core technology is the extraction and formulation of polyphenols (biomolecules) from plants grown in extreme environmental conditions, where the plants naturally produce elevated levels of secondary metabolites. The company applies physiological, chemical, proteomic, and genomic analytical tools to characterize how these polyphenols interact with soil microbiota, plant metabolism, and crop pests and diseases. R&D is conducted under a dedicated sub-brand, Bio AgTechnologies, in collaboration with a multinational network of academic partners including the National University of Quilmes, INBA (Argentina), University of Bologna (Italy), University of Piura (Peru), and Federal University of Vicosa (Brazil).

The product portfolio is organized into five solution categories: Plant Health (BERN, BERN Seed, BERN Z+), Crop Nutrition (BASEL), Soil Health (ZURICH), Crop Protection (nematicide, fungicide, insecticide biosolutions), and Home & Garden (Raiz, Foliar, Protect). Products are positioned as natural biostimulants and biobased crop protection inputs that optimize photosynthetic activity, improve root development and nutrient absorption, support beneficial soil microbiota, and address pest and disease pressure in both organic and conventional production systems. The go-to-market is sales-led and direct, engaging commercial farmers and agricultural producers across the Americas through an extensive field trial network, supplemented by trilingual digital marketing (Spanish, English, Portuguese), downloadable brochures, and active social media presence. The company is privately held with no disclosed institutional investors, parent company, or funding history.

Core offering

Agrocube develops, manufactures, and sells polyphenol-based plant extract products for agricultural use. The portfolio includes plant health, crop nutrition, soil health, and crop protection solutions for commercial farmers, as well as home and garden products for residential consumers. Products are formulated from biomolecules extracted from plants grown in extreme environmental conditions.

Product overview

Agrocube is a company that develops and produces plant extracts based on polyphenols for agricultural applications. The product portfolio includes five main solution categories: Plant Health (including BERN Seed, BERN, BASEL products), Crop Nutrition, Soil Health (including ZURICH), Crop Protection (nematicide, fungicide, insecticide), and Home & Garden (Raiz/Root, Foliar, Protect). The products utilize natural plant extracts from plants grown in extreme environments that produce high amounts of secondary metabolites, used for plant defense against pests, diseases, and environmental stress, as well as improving soil health and microbiota.

Functional benefit

Brands

• Bio AgTechnologies: Research and development program focused on generating innovative agricultural solutions using polyphenols for plant and soil health, coordinated with international scientific institutions.

Products and services

• BERN
• BERN Seed Seed treatment product based on polyphenols for plant health applications at the seed level.
• BASEL Foliar product that acts due to its polyphenol content, optimizing plant metabolism and allowing better use of photosynthetic activity for higher quality and quantity of final product.
• BERN Z+ Foliar product composed of polyphenols that optimize plant metabolism, improving photosynthetic activity and increasing production of carbohydrates, proteins and lipids. Contains Zinc and improves nutrient use efficiency.
• ZURICH Soil-applied product with polyphenol content that favors root development, improves nutrient absorption, favors mycorrhization and establishment of microflora, improving soil conditions by degrading as humic substances.
• Raiz (Root) Product for home and garden focused on improving root development of potted plants.
• Foliar Foliar application product for home and garden use.
• Protect Protection product for home and garden applications.
