Research and Development is in our DNA
We bet on innovative Japanese technologies, adapting them to the reality of Brazilian crops.
For 59 years, IHARA has worked side by side with the farmer, developing new technologies that help protect the productive potential of the most diverse crops. With more than 80 products in the portfolio to serve more than 100 different crops, our purpose is to solve the day to day of the farmer in the field and contribute to the progress and competitiveness of Brazilian agriculture.
IHARA is in a NEW ERA in crop protection, betting on releases that will make history in the management of the main crops and offering unprecedented technologies in its portfolio as never seen before, and with a new structure to meet the challenges of the market.
This is only possible thanks to our Japanese origin, which not only guides our principles and values, but also makes us the main bridge between the technologies developed by our Japanese shareholders, who are the largest developers of molecules in the world, and the Brazilian farmer.
We are very proud to be on this soil, constantly working to keep our agriculture among the largest on the planet.
