The company

Agriodor is an innovative, impact-driven, and multi-award-winning SME founded in 2019, based on research into the relationship between crop pest insects and plants.

After an initial phase of laboratory and field development, the company patented its first solutions based on Kairomones and Allomones, which significantly reduce the use of phytosanitary products in crops — a major benefit for biodiversity. Agriodor is the first company worldwide to design this type of solution.

This rapid progress enabled the company to raise funds and earn the French Tech 2030 label.

With two distribution contracts already signed, Agriodor is now experiencing strong project acceleration. At the heart of this growth is the expansion of target insects and crops, including beet, potato, fruit trees (stone fruits, apple trees), berries, tropical fruits, and soon maize, soybean, and cotton.

Agriodor target strong performance improvement of its activities with a more relevant use of data : data management, data science, AI
