Vitropic - Research

Vitropic, the fruits of research

Why opt for a vitroplant?

For its sanitary quality. A healthy plant means fewer treatments, therefore production is less expensive and greener.
For its horticultural quality. Faster and more homogeneous development, which means higher productivity.
For its availability. Using vitroplants is a way of obtaining plant stock quickly, in large quantities, and at any time of year.

Why Vitropic?

A range of varieties tailored to your speciﬁc needs

We develop our offering in line with changing global practices and the diversity of contexts, to provide a wide range of selections suited to various cultivation conditions.

The originality of our banana plant catalogue lies in their selection based on agronomic performance (yield, robustness, fruit quality, etc.) under restrictive cultivation conditions, and with environmentally-friendly agricultural practices.

We can also tailor our catalogue to your projects, introducing new plant species to provide you with the plants that you need.
