Alfa-CM S.r.l. is an Italian SME that developed a new product A.MI.CO., it is an eco-sustainable antimicrobial compound to combat bacterial and fungal pathogens in plants : it is positioned between the synthetic compounds toxic to the environment and those of biological origin
It belongs to a new family of eco-friendly antimicrobial compounds. It is a polymer which, after exerting its antibacterial and antifungal activity, degrades avoiding polluting the soil and surface water.
We use it in the plant sector for the protection of pre-harvest crops and, for the post-harvest phase, to reduce waste by improving shelf-life by reducing the use of traditional pesticides and for the development of agriculture in developing countries.
The specific areas of application can be:
a) reduction of plant product waste along the supply chain
b) increase in the shelf life of some products
c) reduction of the use of compounds harmful to the environment and health. - Topic 1.2.1-2024 (IA) Transformative Adaptation of Mediterranean dry farming systems using water harvesting techniques to address extreme drought in arid and semi-arid environments. | Topic 2.2.1 (RIA ) Revitalizing agroforestry practices for sustainable land use and climate resilience in the Mediterranean region
- Topic 1.3.1-2024 (IA) – Developing cost-effective and sustainable technologies adapted to Mediterranean Food Systems to decrease food loss and waste. | Topic 2.3.1-2024 (RIA ) Leveraging urban and local food systems for sustainable food systems transformation
