Green Bug: innovative organic solution for crop protection

Organic farming continues to evolve, driven by the constant search for eco-friendly methods to safeguard crops.

In this context, one of the most promising innovations is Green Bug, an advanced mechanical solution that offers effective protection against flea beetles, aphids, and thrips, especially in arugula crops.

Designed by the Forigo team to integrate seamlessly into biological cycles, the equipment eliminates the need for chemical pesticides, fully embracing the principles of sustainable agriculture.

Why is Green Bug so innovative?

Green Bug stands out for its high suction power and a design that minimizes noise, ensuring almost no disturbance to the surrounding environment.

The machine’s color is optimized for effective camouflage, reducing the risk of scaring beneficial insects.

Its powerful suction captures harmful insects, which are then neutralized through finely calibrated metal barriers. The collected insects are confined in filter containers, preventing them from re-entering the environment.

Advantages and usage guide for Green Bug

Regular use of Green Bug can significantly reduce, or even eliminate, reliance on chemical pesticides, making it highly valuable for organic farmers. While it takes more time compared to chemical treatments, the benefits in terms of crop health and environmental impact are unmatched.

It’s important to avoid using the machine in overly dusty conditions, whereas slightly humid environments, such as greenhouses, are ideal for optimal performance.

Green Bug is available in different configurations (single, double, or triple bed) and requires a tractor of about 70 horsepower, making it an effective and practical solution for many farmers.

In conclusion…

Green Bug represents a cutting-edge, environmentally friendly solution for crop protection. Its ability to combat harmful insects, reduce the need for chemical pesticides, and contribute to environmental cleanliness makes it a winning choice for those committed to organic farming.

Through Green Bug’s innovation, farmers can protect their crops in a healthier, more sustainable way, with tangible and lasting results. Interested in learning more? Contact us for further information: our team is always at your disposal to answer any questions.
