Founded in 2017, FortePhest is a biotechnology company focusing on crop protection. The Company develops innovative products to control both regular weeds and weeds which are resistant to herbicides. They do this mainly by exploring novel Mechanisms of Action (MOA) discovered in plants. Inspired by natural plant protectors, our products are intended to provide potent, environmentally friendly, and sustainable solutions that may eventually improve crop productivity. Our technology is based on research of world-class teams of scientists from Cornell University, The Weizmann Institute of Science and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
