Our Mission: Securing Kiwifruit Yields
In the Heart of the Agro Pontino: Science and Tradition Serving the Kiwifruit Industry.
Born in Italy's most important kiwifruit district, we provide farmers and contractors with security and business continuity through pharmaceutical-grade pollination.
Born in the Agro Pontino, Built for the World
Agro360 was founded in Latina, surrounded by the very orchards we set out to protect. We saw firsthand how the informal pollen market, characterized by DIY production and undocumented trade, was threatening the livelihoods of our neighbors.
The bacterial canker (PSA — Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae) and the increasing challenges of climate-driven floral asynchrony made it clear: the industry needed a reset.
We created Agro360 to bring the rigor of a biotechnology laboratory straight into the muddy fields of the orchard.
Our Philosophy: Transparency vs. The Invisible Market
The kiwifruit pollen industry has historically been opaque. We exist to dismantle that opacity with verifiable scientific data, total traceability, and absolute pre-sale transparency.
No Guesswork. Data Over Promises.
You shouldn't have to cross your fingers and hope the pollen you bought is viable or disease-free. We integrate field practice with advanced purification technology.
Pre-Commitment Molecular Data
We prove our claims with molecular Real-Time PCR data (EPPO PM 7/120) and in-vitro agar germination test certificates before you ever commit to a purchase.
-20°C Cold Chain & RUOP
Every gram of pollen travels under official RUOP IT-12-1809 compliance, accompanied by calibrated USB dataloggers certifying thermal integrity right to the orchard.
Certified Batch Assay Prior to Balance: Zero Blind Procurement
Kiwifruit fruit set is determined within an unforgiving 3-to-5 day bloom window: commercial orchard yields cannot be gambled on marketing promises. Agro360 binds every delivery to a dedicated batch code accompanied by an official test report from an accredited third-party laboratory (Biotac, Bio Lab Service). You verify in-vitro agar germinability and molecular PSA-free status (qPCR EPPO PM 7/120) before disbursing the seasonal balance. If certified parameters fail to meet contract specifications, the reservation is released with zero grower liability.
24h Zespri Agar Substrate Assay
In-vitro verification on modified BK medium at 25°C. 70% contractual minimum floor, >90% fresh harvest target.
Molecular PSA-Free Screening
Real-Time PCR (EPPO PM 7/120) and Enbiotech LAMP diagnosis with certified laboratory report released pre-payment.
Cryogenic Storage at -20°C (RUOP)
Assigned batch sealed in cryogenic cells at -20°C under RUOP IT-12-1809 in Cisterna di Latina and dispatched with dedicated USB dataloggers.
The Agro360 Team
We are a team of two specialized professionals. We don't wear sterile lab coats in corporate offices; we wear work boots. We understand the cold of the early morning frost and the anxiety of the harvest.
Our agronomic experts spend their days in the orchards, calibrating equipment, checking fruit set, and ensuring that our 99% pure kiwifruit pollen translates into tangible, premium caliber yields for our clients.
Dr. Mattia, Agronomist
Specializing in actinidia floral kinetics and bacterial canker (PSA) prevention. He monitors Latina canopies daily to determine stigma receptivity windows, calibrate electrostatic cloud charge, and structure orchard application timing.
Dr. Sara, Biologist
Molecular biologist overseeing in-vitro agar viability assays on modified Brewbaker & Kwack media and Real-Time PCR pathogen screenings. She manages the continuous -20°C cold chain and ensures batch certification prior to delivery.
Our Partners: Laboratories and Universities
We cannot advance precision kiwifruit pollination alone. Agro360 collaborates closely with leading independent laboratories and agricultural universities. These partnerships guarantee the absolute impartiality of our PCR certifications and keep us at the cutting edge of research regarding the 2026 Plant Passport regulations and plant pathology.
