Rovensa Next bets on Brazil as global biosolutions race gathers pace

Spain-based Rovensa Next has secured R$45 million in Brazilian government-backed financing from FINEP to accelerate research and development of agricultural biosolutions, reinforcing Brazil’s growing role as a global center for biological crop inputs. The funding supports new biocontrol, bionutrition, and adjuvant products, with Brazil serving both as a major market and a hub for technology development and scaling. The country’s bioinputs sector has expanded rapidly, with significant increases in treated acreage and market value, underscoring the shift of biologicals from niche to mainstream in large-scale agriculture. Rovensa Next’s investments, including a new pilot fermentation plant, aim to connect market opportunities with innovative products that address both local and global agricultural challenges.
